Lore Brewing Company Book Club - June Meeting
Advertisement
Join us on the 4th Wednesday of every month for our Lore Brewing Company Book Club!
In June we will be delving into the world of True Crime with The Stranger Beside Me by Ann Rule.
Each month we will be choosing a genre from a randomizer to help choose books for the next month. Our July genre is Book to Movie. We will be taking recommendations to vote on for choosing the June book. Only requirements at this point are that books have at least a 4 star rating on Goodreads and Amazon, and to stick with stand alone books if we can.
If you don't get the book read in time, don't worry! We'll be ready to discuss the book but also looking forward to hanging out with fellow readers while enjoying great drinks and food!
The Stranger Beside Me by Ann Rule:
THE DEFINITIVE WORK OF AMERICAN TRUE CRIME FROM "AMERICA'S BEST TRUE-CRIME WRITER"
Utterly unique in its astonishing intimacy, as jarringly frightening as when it first appeared, Ann Rule's The Stranger Beside Me defies our expectation that we would surely know if a monster lived among us, worked alongside of us, appeared as one of us. With a slow chill that intensifies with each heart-pounding page, Rule describes her dawning awareness that Ted Bundy, her sensitive coworker on a crisis hotline, was one of the most prolific serial killers in America. He would confess to killing at least thirty-six young women from coast to coast, and was eventually executed for three of those cases. Drawing from their correspondence that endured until shortly before Bundy's death, and striking a seamless balance between her deeply personal perspective and her role as a crime reporter on the hunt for a savage serial killer -- the brilliant and charismatic Bundy, the man she thought she knew -- Rule changed the course of true-crime literature with this unforgettable chronicle.
