Warwickshire Man Booker Winner is announced!

Last night in Stratford, we voted for the Warwickshire Winner 2012 and it's ( bated breath! )

Tan Twan Eng  The Garden of Evening Mists

It was an out and out winner, scoring 56 points over Bring up the Bodies (45),  Lighthouse (39)
Umbrella (30)  Swimming Home (29)  and Narcopolis (28)

We also voted for which one we think the judges will choose later on today, and the results were :

Bring up the Bodies ( 58) Garden of Evening Mists ( 53)  Umbrella ( 52)   Narcopolis ( 38) Lighthouse (34)  Swimming Home ( 31)

It was a really good evening last night, and thank you to those who came along.

I would also like to thank you ALL again for taking part, and making the shadowing exercise so much fun! I hope you all found it worthwhile, and ( you never know) we may be doing something similar again next year.

Happy Reading to you all
