@GenMcAllister Ooooh leftfield, we like!
We’re currently debating the greatest opening line in fiction... ...George Orwell “1984”, Charles Dickens “A Tale Of Two Cities” and Jane Austen “Pride and Prejudice” seem to be the favourites! Which book would you add? #books #r2bookclub #novels
@Martinjcampbell It certainly does!
@Cleverestcookie Oh yes! A great suggestion...
@beckicklesie Can’t beat a bit of @MargaretAtwood
@notwavingdrowni Oooof! That’s a good one...
@40Dawn Oh yes, how did we miss that!
@duncangreeneye @BBCRadio2 @sarajcox WHAT A BOOK!
