Event Details

April's book club selection: "The Book Club for Troublesome Women" by Marie Bostwick is a historical fiction novel about four suburban housewives in 1960s Virginia who form a secret book club, inspired by Betty Friedan's The Feminine Mystique, to explore their dissatisfaction with domestic life and find their voices, leading to self-discovery and lasting friendships. The book is praised as a heartwarming, humorous, and substantial story about female friendship, ambition, and the societal limitations women faced, making it a "feel-good beach read with substance. 

Books are available at the Circulation Desk a month prior to the meeting.
