Book Club: The Girl on the Train

Shawshank, December 13, 2020

Hey book nerds! It’s time for the next instalment of Lockup Library Book Club. A couple of hours late, but better late than never. I originally sat down, thinking I was going to blast through Brave New World, but I really couldn’t get into it today. So I picked up The Girl on the Train.

I’ve never been blackout drunk. I mean, I’ve always remembered what I’ve done. Even if I pass out and throw up in a friends house. I remember it. That way I don’t do it again.

Well Rachel has been blackout drunk a couple of times already, and the police are asking her questions about what she did last Saturday. She can’t remember. She can remember bits and pieces of what she thinks might have happened, but can’t remember exactly what happened.

What has happened is that the woman that she sees from her morning train ride into London has gone missing. And the police are trying to figure out what’s happened. Rachel was seen near by the woman’s house on Saturday, drunk. And seems to be a prime suspect.

I’m intrigued, and also want to know what’s going on. I guess I’ll have to keep reading to find that out! Until next time, keep your nose in a book!
