Some gatherings change your life long before you realize it.
To the outside world, Eve, Annie, Doris, Gabriella, and Midge meet simply to discuss books. But behind closed doors, their monthly circle becomes a refuge where each woman finds the courage to face the truths reshaping her life. Eve mourns a future stolen by sudden loss. Annie weighs ambition against the family she longs for. Doris confronts the end of a marriage she once trusted. Gabriella discovers how difficult it is to ask for the support she always gives. Midge embraces the freedom to live by her own rules.
As their stories intertwine, these five women discover that change is bearable when shared.
The Book Club by Mary Alice Monroe is a tender portrait of resilience, connection, and the quiet power of friendship.
