Book Club Stuff

One of the best aspects of being a reader is the opportunity to participate in or forming a book club. As an avid reader myself, I appreciate the time and dedication taken to discuss a story with fellow bibliophiles. As an author, I was determined to provide resources for book club readers to help provoke discussion. And, as a food fanatic, of course I had to provide a delicious recipe that relates to the story. Check them out and enjoy! –LORENZO
