August Bookchat
Come along to chat about books! We meet on a designated Tuesday morning/Wednesday evening monthly at The Booklover Bookshop to discuss our latest bookchat book. Your ticket price includes 1x copy of the bookchat book, nibbles & drinks, and the opportunity to meet like minded booklovers while discussing the latest and greatest novels. There is also the option to buy a ticket without the book if you happen to already own it.
August’s bookchat book is Isola by Allegra Goodman.
BLURB //
In sixteenth-century France, as the heiress to an aristocratic fortune, Marguerite is destined for a life of privilege. Then she is orphaned, and her enigmatic and volatile guardian squanders her inheritance and insists she accompany him on an expedition to the new French colonies of North America. Isolated and afraid, Marguerite befriends her guardian’s servant and the two develop an intense attraction. But when their relationship is discovered, they are brutally punished, abandoned on a small island with no hope for rescue.
From a childhood dressed in gowns and laced pearls in her hair, Marguerite finds herself at the mercy of nature. As the weather turns, blanketing the island in ice, she discovers a faith she had never before needed…
Upon checkout you can choose to pick-up the book in person (free) or we can ship it to you for $7.00!
