Named one of the 10 Best Books of 2019 by the New York Times Book Review - A Publishers Weekly Best Book of 2019 - A Kirkus Best Book of 2019 "Damrosch brings the Club's redoubtable personalities--the brilliant minds, the jousting wits, the tender camaraderie--to vivid life."--New York Times Book Review "Magnificently entertaining."--Washington Post In 1763, the painter Joshua Reynolds proposed to his friend Samuel Johnson that they invite a few friends to join them every Friday at the Turk's Head Tavern in London to dine, drink, and talk until midnight. Eventually the group came to include among its members Edmund Burke, Adam Smith, Edward Gibbon, and James Boswell. It was known simply as "the Club." In this captivating book, Leo Damrosch brings alive a brilliant, competitive, and eccentric cast of characters. With the friendship of the "odd couple" Samuel Johnson and James Boswell at the heart of his narrative, Damrosch conjures up the precarious, exciting, and often brutal world of late eighteenth-century Britain. This is the story of an extraordinary group of people whose ideas helped to shape their age, and our own.Binding Type: Paperback

Coming Home
Format: Kindle
Julia Blumer’s sisters beg her to come home to their small seaside California town because their mother, Babs Blumer is dying. Out of love for her sisters, Julia flies home. She arrives thinking that she could make peace with the cruel and arbitrary woman who raised her. She wonders about Liam, the only boy she ever loved, the boy next door, the boy she left behind. Will she see him? Will they speak?
When Julia sees Babs, it’s obvious that the dying woman does not love her. When she sees Liam, it’s obvious that he is still hurt and angry about how Julia left and with whom. As her life becomes more complicated, secrets are revealed, and the twists keep coming right up until the last chapter.
Jenn McKinlay’s I CAN’T EVEN is a complex story dealing with family love, romantic love, and lots of secrets. At the same time, it is humorous and suspenseful, harsh and tender. Expect some spicy moments and some ugly takedowns, too. But trust this author to give you a happy ending.

Perfect for grieving readers
Format: Kindle
This book was more emotional than I expected. Its main focus is grief and how people work through it differently but everyone needs a tribe to help them through it. My grief journey tribe is completely different than I thought it would be but they are perfect for me. I resonated deeply with all three girls. Sometimes grief hits you hard in the weirdest places. It will take your breath away. Other times it quietly creeps up on you.
There are plenty of funny scenes as well. Just be prepared to laugh through your snotty crying.
Spicy yes there are a couple of spicy scenes.
I would love a book each in the two other sisters as they navigate through their new life. Especially Soph, her husband is a jerk.
I highly recommend this book to anyone.

I Can’t Even
Format: Kindle
I love Jenn McKinlay’s books but this one was a little chaotic and left too many things open ended for me. Also the reunion happened way too quick without any real resolution or explanation between them before they jumping into bed again.
