We loved Ruth. Ruth was an energetic and enthusiastic constant of The Haywire Book Club for 20 years.

In summer 2021 she chose "The diary of a bookseller", an uplifting, positive and humorous book, reminiscent of our beloved Ruth.

Book club published an anthology "Unprocessed" in lock down 2020. Here is one of the poems Ruth wrote,

Memo to my younger self:

Remember to be....

Proud not humble

Sassy not coy

Confident not fearful

Resilient not vulnerable

Hopeful not despairing

But above all be mutinous and do your own thing!
