Historical Fiction Book Club (Remote)
May 1, 2020 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
FreeThe Books Around the Corner Historical Fiction Book Club will be community led and meets monthly on the first Friday of every month at 4PM. We would like to extend an invitation to all of our historical fiction loving customers (RSVP is not required).
Our book discussions aim to bring people together to talk about books in a safe and inviting atmosphere. Our meetings are lovely and inclusive; we invite you to attend. Come and enjoy a lively discussion about the chosen book with other readers.
Join us on May 1st for our Historical Fiction Book Club.
We will discuss Salt to the Sea by Ruth Sepetys
About the book:
Winter 1945. WWII. Four refugees. Four stories.
Each one born of a different homeland; each one hunted, and haunted, by tragedy, lies, war. As thousands desperately flock to the coast in the midst of a Soviet advance, four paths converge, vying for passage aboard the Wilhelm Gustloff, a ship that promises safety and freedom. But not all promises can be kept . . .
We offer 15% discount off our book club books. Due to the time and effort we put into organizing our book clubs if you choose to purchase the book elsewhere or check it out from the library we will now be asking members who do not purchase their books at our shop to pay a $5 fee. Thank you for understanding and supporting us.
