Featured Book: The Book Club for Troublesome Women

Set in the early 1960s, The Book Club for Troublesome Women follows four suburban women whose monthly book club becomes the beginning of something much bigger. As they read, gather, and share their lives with one another, they begin questioning the expectations placed upon them and imagining different possibilities for their futures.

A story of friendship, books, and women finding the courage to redefine their lives, the novel has become a reader favorite since its 2025 release and was a finalist for the Goodreads Choice Award for Best Historical Fiction.
