July 2014: FAKE MUSTACHE by Tom Angleberger

For our last meeting of the year, we wanted a funny read, and Tom Angleberger didn't disappoint. We had a party to celebrate the end of a brilliant year of reading, an excellent opportunity to wear some fake mustaches of our own . . .

 and of course to draw some to our own design, complete with reviews . . .

‘It’s about a boy trying to stop a boy becoming president. I enjoyed it because it was about mustaches!’

‘It’s about a fake mustache and an evil mastermind. It was fun’

‘It was fun. I’d recommend it to a friend if they like looney stuff!’

‘I enjoyed it because it was funny’

We were even able to send video reviews to our author, and had some great messages from him via Twitter.

And it was a brilliant end to the week - and to our year - to get this message from Abrams & Chronicle, Tom's publisher:

 We swapped books to read over the summer - looking forward to what everyone thought, and to seeing you in September to talk about A LETTER FOR THE KING.
