Posy Pages

Join the sweetest book club in town as we discuss Mrs. Quinn's Rise to Fame by Olivia Ford.

“A huge-hearted, redemptive coming-of-old-age tale, a love story, and an ode to good food.

Nothing could be more out of character, but after fifty-nine years of marriage, as her husband Bernard’s health declines, and her friends' lives become focused on their grandchildren—which Jenny never had—Jenny decides she wants a little something for herself. So she secretly applies to be a contestant on the prime-time TV show Britain Bakes…

With her baking star rising, Jenny struggles to keep a lid on that first secret—a long-concealed deceit that threatens to shatter the very foundations of her marriage. It’s the only time in six decades that she’s kept something from Bernard. By putting herself in the limelight, has Jenny created a recipe for disaster?”

Limited copies will be available at OPL for check-out. Please contact us to reserve a copy.
