If you have recommendations for future books, please be prepared to tell us about them at the January discussion. We'll do our best to stay 3 months ahead for those who read more quickly.
We hope you'll join us for January's discussion of Evvie Drake Starts Over. This is the debut novel of Linda Holmes, NPR contributor and host of the Pop Culture Happy Hour podcast.
A link to a summary and reviews for our January book is below. Many of us are on Goodreads and follow each other's reading beyond the book group. There is also a reading challenge for those want to encourage themselves to read more often.
Remember: Bookmarks in downtown Winston Salem gives us a 15% discount for any book club pick, and it's great to spend the money locally, so stop by and see them!
Throughout the year some of us get together to play book trivia at Bookmarks, or attend their events, so check our FB page for those updates.
See everyone in a few weeks!
Sincerely,
~Jodi :)
