Picnic at Hanging Rock

Picnic at Hanging Rock - Joan Lindsay Picnic at Hanging Rock by Joan Lindsay is a sinister tale that had me at page one.

I really enjoyed this novel and set in Austrailia in 1900.

" It was a cloudless summer day in the year nineteen hundred, Everyone at Appleyard College for Young Ladies agreed it was just right for a picnic at hanging rock. After lunch, a group of threee girls climbed into the blaze of the afternoon sun , pressing on through the scrub into the shadows of hanging Rock. Further, higher, unitl at last they disappeared, They never returned..............

Extremely well written book that had me intrigued from the first page. I had to stop myself from getting on the computer and googling many times throughout the novel and only did so at the very end. Loved the mystery of this story and on finishing the novel left me with a wonderful sense of " What happened to those girls". I really want to watch the movie now.

I think this is one of those book where .......... THE LESS SAID THE BETTER.....
