Okay, fellow book lovers...can you guess the identity of our Book Club Girl Book of the Month for June, based on these three clues?
1. It's based on a true story, and revolves around the lives of two sisters (and their husbands).
2. The author is a #1 New York Times bestseller.
3. It's set in the past (aka one of our favorite genres, historical fiction) but has themes of love and constraint, identity and reinvention, that will resonate with modern readers.
We'll reveal the title of our Book Club Girl Book of the Month for June in next week's newsletter! |
