Book Club is reading "The Wrong Mother"

Join Sandy and Laura for the next monthly meeting of the “Book Club in the Grove” on Thursday, November 12 at 7:30 pm at The Bookstore (3399 Virginia Street).

This month’s featured book is “The Wrong Mother," a page-turning psychological thriller by Sophie Hannah. No sign up is necessary, just read the book, and be prepared for good discussion, good company, and a good time.

The theme for the evening will be ‘Murder She Wrote’, and all mystery novels will be discounted by 15% for book club attendees. Come join us, enjoy a complimentary glass of wine, and a spirited conversation on Sophie’s newest novel.

Following is a synopsis and review of the book from Publisher's Weekly:


Sally Thorning, part-time environment rescuer and full-time mother, struggles to maintain her sanity and juggle the overwhelming demands of work and home in this superior psychological mystery from British author Hannah (Little Face).

During a week away from her husband and children, Sally has a brief affair. A year later the consequences of this dalliance explode into a nightmare.— Paced like a ticking time bomb with flawlessly distinct characterization; this is a fiercely fresh and un-put-downable read.
