While we may not be able to meet
in person right now, book clubs are still a great way to connect socially and
stay engaged!
Does a good mystery capture your interest? After you have read this month's
choice, join us for a great discussion. Each month we will read a new
title from the mystery genre. New members are always welcome.
Registration required.
In November, we are discussing The Guest List
by Lucy Foley. This title is available as an ebook or audiobook from DownloadLibrary.
On an island off the coast of Ireland,
guests gather to celebrate two people joining their lives together as one. The
groom: handsome and charming, a rising television star. The bride: smart and
ambitious, a magazine publisher. It's a wedding for a magazine, or for a
celebrity: the designer dress, the remote location, the luxe party favors, the
boutique whiskey. The cell phone service may be spotty and the waves may be
rough, but every detail has been expertly planned and will be expertly
executed.
But perfection is for plans, and people
are all too human. As the champagne is popped and the festivities begin,
resentments and petty jealousies begin to mingle with the reminiscences and
well wishes. The groomsmen begin the drinking game from their school days. The
bridesmaid not-so-accidentally ruins her dress. The bride's oldest (male)
friend gives an uncomfortably caring toast.
And then someone turns up dead. Who didn't wish the happy couple well? And perhaps more important, why?
