Book club<br />
Two long weekends this month, so plenty of time to catch up on your reading.<br />
And with loads of amazing new titles on the bookshelves, you’re spoilt for choice.<br />
Imagine, when your child is<br />
a year old, discovering there<br />
may have been a switch at<br />
the fertility clinic. She may<br />
not be yours. Imagine, too,<br />
a year after your daughter<br />
is stillborn, getting a call to<br />
say there may have been a<br />
mistake ... your egg may have<br />
been given to the wrong<br />
person, and your daughter is<br />
alive. Worst. Nightmare. Ever.<br />
Charlene Carr’s hold My Girl<br />
is a rollercoaster of a read ...<br />
tender, thought-provoking,<br />
emotional. Two women.<br />
Two eggs. One life-changing<br />
switch and a custody battle<br />
fought to the bitter (and it is<br />
bitter) end. Welbeck<br />

Two Dogs, a Peacock and a Horse walk into a bar ... and<br />
everyone lived happily ever after. We’re all for a sense of<br />
humour. And a great glass of Sauv. Put the two together<br />
and what’s not to love! This is the 10th vintage of Black<br />
Elephant Vintners & Co’s Two Dogs, a Peacock and a<br />
horse Sauvignon Blanc 2022, and the vintage, they say, has<br />
shown up for the celebration. The Cheerleader (the wine’s<br />
nickname) is smooth and fruity (think melon, tropical fruits,<br />
gooseberry) and, the wine makers say, doesn’t mess with<br />
you ... no acidic heartburn after a few glasses. It is, they boast,<br />
perfect for pool parties (and we think book clubs) and 1000<br />
of your closest friends ... and pairs best with Mango Groove’s<br />
Dance Some More. Around R92.
