SUMMARY:Book Club Meeting: The Frozen River by Ariel Lawhon
DESCRIPTION:Come join us in FEBRUARY for our next book club meeting! The book for this coming meeting is THE FROZEN RIVER by Ariel Lawhon. \n\n\n\nABOUT THE BOOK \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMaine\, 1789: When the Kennebec River freezes\, entombing a man in the ice\, Martha Ballard is summoned to examine the body and determine cause of death. As a midwife and healer\, she is privy to much of what goes on behind closed doors in Hallowell. Her diary is a record of every birth and death\, crime and debacle that unfolds in the close-knit community. Months earlier\, Martha documented the details of an alleged rape committed by two of the town’s most respected gentlemen—one of whom has now been found dead in the ice. But when a local physician undermines her conclusion\, declaring the death to be an accident\, Martha is forced to investigate the shocking murder on her own.Over the course of one winter\, as the trial nears\, and whispers and prejudices mount\, Martha doggedly pursues the truth. Her diary soon lands at the center of the scandal\, implicating those she loves\, and compelling Martha to decide where her own loyalties lie.Clever\, layered\, and subversive\, Ariel Lawhon’s newest offering introduces an unsung heroine who refused to accept anything less than justice at a time when women were considered best seen and not heard. The Frozen River is a thrilling\, tense\, and tender story about a remarkable woman who left an unparalleled legacy yet remains nearly forgotten to this day.

SUMMARY:Book Club Meeting: The Briar Club by Kate Quinn
DESCRIPTION:Come join us in JANUARY for our next book club meeting! The book for this coming meeting is THE BRIAR CLUB by Kate Quinn. \n\n\n\nABOUT THE BOOK \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe New York Times bestselling author of The Diamond Eye and The Rose Code returns with a haunting and powerful story of female friendships and secrets in a Washington\, DC\, boardinghouse during the McCarthy era. \n\n\n\nWashington\, DC\, 1950. Everyone keeps to themselves at Briarwood House\, a down-at-the-heels all-female boardinghouse in the heart of the nation’s capital where secrets hide behind white picket fences. But when the lovely\, mysterious widow Grace March moves into the attic room\, she draws her oddball collection of neighbors into unlikely friendship: poised English beauty Fliss\, whose facade of perfect wife and mother covers gaping inner wounds; policeman’s daughter Nora\, who finds herself entangled with a shadowy gangster; frustrated baseball star Beatrice\, whose career has come to an end along with the women’s baseball league of WWII; and poisonous\, gung-ho Arlene\, who has thrown herself into McCarthy’s Red Scare. \n\n\n\nGrace’s weekly attic-room dinner parties and window-brewed sun tea become a healing balm on all their lives\, but she hides a terrible secret of her own. When a shocking act of violence tears the house apart\, the Briar Club women must decide once and for all: who is the true enemy in their midst? \n\n\n\nCapturing the paranoia of the McCarthy era and evoking the changing roles for women in postwar America\, The Briar Club is an intimate and thrilling novel of secrets and loyalty put to the test.

SUMMARY:Book Club Meeting: The Seed Keeper by Diane Wilson
DESCRIPTION:Come join us in NOVEMBER for our next book club meeting! The book for this coming meeting is THE SEED KEEPER by Diane Wilson. \n\n\n\nABOUT THE BOOK: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA haunting novel spanning several generations\, The Seed Keeper follows a Dakhóta family’s struggle to preserve their way of life\, and their sacrifices to protect what matters most. \n\n\n\nRosalie Iron Wing has grown up in the woods with her father\, Ray\, a former science teacher who tells her stories of plants\, of the stars\, of the origins of the Dakhóta people. Until\, one morning\, Ray doesn’t return from checking his traps. Told she has no family\, Rosalie is sent to live with a foster family in nearby Mankato—where the reserved\, bookish teenager meets rebellious Gaby Makespeace\, in a friendship that transcends the damaged legacies they’ve inherited. \n\n\n\nOn a winter’s day many years later\, Rosalie returns to her childhood home. A widow and mother\, she has spent the previous two decades on her white husband’s farm\, finding solace in her garden even as the farm is threatened first by drought and then by a predatory chemical company. Now\, grieving\, Rosalie begins to confront the past\, on a search for family\, identity\, and a community where she can finally belong. In the process\, she learns what it means to be descended from women with souls of iron—women who have protected their families\, their traditions\, and a precious cache of seeds through generations of hardship and loss\, through war and the insidious trauma of boarding schools. \n\n\n\nWeaving together the voices of four indelible women\, The Seed Keeper is a beautifully told story of reawakening\, of remembering our original relationship to the seeds and\, through them\, to our ancestors.

SUMMARY:Book Club Meeting: The Perfect Couple by Elin Hilderbrand
DESCRIPTION:Come join us in OCTOBER for our next book club meeting! The book for this coming meeting is The Perfect Couple by Elin Hilderbrand. \n\n\n\nABOUT THE BOOK: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt’s Nantucket wedding season\, also known as summer-the sight of a bride racing down Main Street is as common as the sun setting at Madaket Beach. The Otis-Winbury wedding promises to be an event to remember: the groom’s wealthy parents have spared no expense to host a lavish ceremony at their oceanfront estate. But it’s going to be memorable for all the wrong reasons after tragedy strikes: a body is discovered in Nantucket Harbor just hours before the ceremony-and everyone in the wedding party is suddenly a suspect. As Chief of Police Ed Kapenash interviews the bride\, the groom\, the groom’s famous mystery-novelist mother\, and even a member of his own family\, he discovers that every wedding is a minefield-and no couple is perfect. Featuring beloved characters from The Castaways\, Beautiful Day\, and A Summer Affair\, The Perfect Couple proves once again that Elin Hilderbrand is the queen of the summer beach read.
