Book Discussion: Stoner by John Edward Williams
Thu, Sep 24, 2:00 AMRead as much as you can and then let's meet up to discuss our thoughts on the book Stoner. "Plot Points: Stoner's life includes an ill-fated marriage to a cold woman, a tender affair with a colleague, strained relationships with his family, and a quiet, impactful career. Themes: The novel delves into loneliness, disappointment, existential meaning, the power of literature, and finding integrity and quiet dignity in a difficult world. Style: Written with simple, precise language, it captures the depth and beauty of a seemingly uneventful life, making the mundane feel profound."
September Bookclub: The Correspondent — Virginia Evans
Sun, Sep 27, 7:00 PM**📚 Our September Book Has Been Chosen!** Thanks to everyone who voted! Our next **Books & Brew** read is: ***The Correspondent — Virginia Evans*** Grab a copy, start reading, and join us for a great conversation! **About the Book** Sybil Van Antwerp has spent much of her life putting pen to paper. Through letters exchanged with family, friends, authors, and strangers, she shares her thoughts, frustrations, memories, and the pieces of herself that can sometimes be easier to express in writing than face-to-face. Told entirely through correspondence, *The Correspondent* gradually reveals the story of a complicated, sharp-witted woman confronting the relationships, regrets, and losses that have shaped her life. Warm, reflective, and deeply human, the novel explores connection, forgiveness, grief, and the ways we continue to grow and understand ourselves—even when we think we already know our own story.

September Book Club - The Calamity Club: A Novel by Kathryn Stockett
Thu, Sep 24, 2:00 AMOxford, Mississippi, 1933. Abandoned by her mother one Christmas Eve, eleven-year-old Meg Lefleur has learned the hard way to rely on no one. Now one of the unadoptable "big girls" at the Lafayette County Orphan Asylum, she fights each day to keep her spirit unbowed. Birdie Calhoun, unmarried and outspoken, has come to Oxford to ask her socialite sister to help the struggling family she’s left behind. But as the Depression tightens its grip, Birdie discovers her sister’s seemingly charmed life is a tapestry of lies. Then, Birdie encounters Charlie, a woman running low on luck with little left to lose. When their fates—and Meg’s—converge, Charlie comes up with an audacious plan for them to take control of their lives. But in a place and time where hypocrisy is rife and women’s freedom is fragile, even the smallest act of defiance can have dangerous consequences.
