July Book and Dinner Club

Pamela is hosting our July Book and Dinner Club at Bogey's Bistro which is located on the picturesque Pitman Golf Course. Bogey's Bistro features a diverse menu including crowd favorites like wings, burgers, upscale handhelds and offers fun cocktails and flights in a seasonally decorated setting. This is NOT A BYOB.

Debby chose The Wedding People, a runaway New York Times bestseller, by Alison Espach. A propulsive and uncommonly wise novel that offers a nuanced and resonant look at the winding paths we can take to places we never imagined―and the chance encounters it sometimes takes to reroute us.

It’s a beautiful day in Newport, Rhode Island, when Phoebe Stone arrives at the grand Cornwall Inn and is immediately mistaken for one of the wedding people. She’s actually the only guest at the Cornwall who isn’t here for the big event.

Phoebe is here because she’s dreamed of coming for years―she hoped to shuck oysters and take sunset sails with her husband, only now she’s here without him, at rock bottom, and determined to have one last decadent splurge on herself.

Meanwhile, the bride has accounted for every detail and every possible disaster the weekend might yield except for, well, Phoebe and Phoebe's plan―which makes it that much more surprising when the two women can’t stop confiding in each other.
