The Book Club for Troublesome Women by Marie Bostwick
Margaret never really meant to start a book club . . . or a feminist revolution, for that matter in this bold and plucky novel from New York Times bestselling author Marie Bostwick.
'Bostwick (ESME CAHILL FAILS SPECTACULARLY, 2023) has written another charming, winning novel, perfect for those who love book club, nostalgia for the 1960s, and stories of female friendship' * Booklist *
'Bostwick's latest is ideal for fans of historical fiction and those who enjoyed Bonnie Garmus's LESSONS IN CHEMISTRY, Kristin Hannah's THE WOMEN, or Kate Quinn's THE BRIAR CLUB, which explore the historical roles of women and the challenges they faced within a society structured to define and limit their roles in and out of the home.' * Library Journal Starred Review *
'In THE BOOK CLUB FOR TROUBLESOME WOMEN, the talented Marie Bostwick says this, 'Acquaintances abound, but true friendships are rare and worth waiting for,' capturing the essence, and the heart, of this story. If you love stories about friendships, strong women, the 60s, and the power of the written word, this is the book for you.' * Marybeth Mayhew Whalen, author of EVERY MOMENT SINCE *
'Marie Bostwick's latest novel, THE BOOK CLUB FOR TROUBLESOME WOMEN, comes at a time when escape is needed without detaching from reality . . . a feel-good beach read with substance, a sweet, tangy, and smooth complement to the strong, briny elements that spark a revolution.' * Southern Review of Books *
'No one writes female friendship like the luminous Marie Bostwick. When a group of friends decide to read Betty Friedan's blockbuster, THE FEMININE MYSTIQUE, the words on the page serve as a rally cry to action for Margaret, Viv, Bitsy, and Charlotte. Long before women were recognized for their contributions and talents, Bostwick carves an unforgettable path for her characters in THE BOOK CLUB FOR TROUBLESOME WOMEN. At its heart, this is a novel about ambitious women and the mentors that inspired them to excellence. This story is a time capsule of what was, which shows us who we are today.' * Adriana Trigiani, bestselling author of THE GOOD LEFT UNDONE *
