It is always a great joy to read a good new writer. I have been aware of MO'F for a while - she used to write for the Guardian - and so I tended to treat rave reviews of her books as a bit of hype for an ex-colleague. However, this month's Book Group book was The Disappearance of Esme Lennox, which I thought was a really interesting, competent book - very well written, well constructed, interesting characters, interesting inter-relationships. I enjoyed it, admired it - these things are not always synonymous.
