Meet the Author - JJ’s Book Club

Calling all local book lovers! October’s book club here at JJ’s is going to be a special one.

Not only will we be chatting through Mitch Albom’s ‘The Stranger in the Lifeboat’ (more on that later!) we’re joined by a special guest who’ll launch our next read for November too! Caroline Blake, a local author, will talk to us about her wonderful book ‘An Unfortunate Situation.’ The story begins in September when Violet, the unfortunate housemaid, discovers she is pregnant. Mrs Compton gives her an ultimatum - give the baby up or be cast out with no job and no reference. The book follows her journey as she travels to the Lake District to have the baby in secret.

Sound great so far..? Let’s get back to September’s book choice - #1 New York Times bestseller, ‘The Stranger in the Lifeboat’ is a fast-paced novel following a group of shipwrecked passengers that pull a strange man from the sea. We’ll discuss that when we’re not picking Caroline’s brains! 📖🍁

Join us on October 7th to catch up on ‘The Stranger in the Lifeboat’ and hear from Caroline Blake ahead of November’s meeting.
