In another Zoom book club, we discuss The Giver of Stars by Jojo Moyes (Lynn’s pick, and also a Reese's Book Club / Hello Sunshine book!). We loved the nature elements of the book, the strong female characters, the historical aspect, and the premise of empowering people with books and literacy. We also chat about allegations of possible plagiarism (see Buzzfeed article below). Plus, we have some unanswered questions about Bennett and Mr. Van Cleve. This month’s genre was Loren’s pick: a book already on your shelf.
Make sure to listen all the way through to find out next episode’s genre and book pick - read along with us this month and join us next episode for our discussion!
