| Summary: | 'A wonderfully uplifting celebration of community and the joy of books' Annie Lyons-- Life can begin with a single story. You just have to Bring Your Own Book... For three decades, Grace supported her husband Frank's passion for books, even though her own love for literature paled in comparison. Since his passing, the shelves echo longingly, and Grace's heartache has only grown. When Grace's grandson suggests joining Frank's old book club, she hesitates. How could meeting with a bunch of strangers possibly fill the void he left behind? Despite her doubts -- and desperate to feel close to Frank again -- Grace decides to attend. Yet, upon arrival, Grace is puzzled to find this isn't your typical book here, you settle in for an hour of silent reading. Disappointed by the sparse attendance and confused by the lack of chatter she flees. But when equally lonely member, Annie, convinces her to stay, Grace is determined to ensure that neither Frank -- nor his beloved book club -- are forgotten. And as she breathes new life into the group, she might just find this is where she truly belongs. Because this next chapter of life could just be the beginning of her story... |

| Author Notes: | Kate Storey started her career teaching English and Drama, and when she had her family, combined all three to write novels about family drama. Originally from Yorkshire, she now lives in a London suburb with her husband and two teenage daughters, so expects there's plenty more drama to come. The Forgotten Book Club is her second novel. |
