Stories That Stay: Theo of Golden, Our January Book Club Read

Theo of Golden is a beautifully written novel that explores memory, identity, love, and the quiet moments that shape a life. It's set against the backdrop of a small town, and it follows Theo as he reflects on his past, grapples with regret, and searches for meaning in the relationships that defined him.

This novel invites us to slow down and sit with some big questions:

• How do our memories shape who we become?
• What does it mean to truly know—and forgive—ourselves?
• How do place and community influence our sense of belonging?

With its lyrical prose and emotionally resonant storytelling, Theo of Golden offers plenty to unpack, and we will do just that on Wednesday, January 28, 2026, at 6:30 PM. We will enjoy some dinner at The Shelby in Allentown. Come ready to share insights, favorite passages, and the moments that lingered with you long after the final page.

I can't wait to see you there!
