This week, we are showcasing: The Casual Vacancy by JK Rowling
When Barry Fairweather dies in his early forties, the town of Pagford is left in shock.
Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war.
Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils…Pagford is not what it first seems.
And the empty seat left by Barry on the parish council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations?
I know that we featured this book in the last Top Ten Tuesday, but it's coming out really soon and we are excited about it, so it felt wrong to not do a Waiting on Wednesday for it. I hope you'll forgive me... :D
Release date: September 27th, 2012
keep readin' it write!
