I had come across some summer book club suggestions and had to put all three of them on a wait list. Well, one by one they came available, finally!
First, just finished, The Nickel Boys, written by Colson Whitehead.
I thought it was a very good story, his style of storytelling, keep me very interested.

My second, I'll be starting this week, Ask Again, Yes, written by Mary Beth Keane. A new York Times bestseller, about a two families, the bond between their children, a tragedy that reverberates over 4 decades, daily intimacies of marriage and the power of forgiveness. This book was recommended by Jimmy Fallon's list.

And the third, I'll be picking up today. Whisper Network, written by Chandler Baker. About four powerful women working in corporate America, who band together to stop the whispers in sexual harassment and assault in the workplace. Part page turning thriller, part smart examination of the #MeToo, part feminist ralling cry. Good beach read, even as we enter fall..lol. This was a pick by Reese Witherspoon.
