Our July Book Club Pick!
Woohoo! It’s time to kick off July with our Book Club Pick!
If you’re new to our Book Club have no fear – we keep it super simple. We read just one book a month, and each book is chosen for its ability to help us focus in on what matters, and simplify our home and faith. We’ve got an incredible list of books this year – you can check them all out here!
Without further adieu, here’s our 2022 AW Book Club selection for July:
What Alice Forgot, by Liane Moriarty
Description:
Alice Love is twenty-nine, crazy about her husband, and pregnant with her first child. So imagine Alice’s surprise when she comes to on the floor of a gym (a gym! She HATES the gym) and is whisked off to the hospital where she discovers the honeymoon is truly over—she’s getting divorced, she has three kids, and she’s actually 39 years old. Alice must reconstruct the events of a lost decade, and find out whether it’s possible to reconstruct her life at the same time. She has to figure out why her sister hardly talks to her, and how is it that she’s become one of those super skinny moms with really expensive clothes. Ultimately, Alice must discover whether forgetting is a blessing or a curse, and whether it’s possible to start over…
Liane Moriarty remains one of my favorite authors ever. The way she weaves a story to leave little clues all the way throughout, only to bring everything together in the end, is so satisfying! This book is one of my favorites of hers, and a great summer read!
Head’s up – She’s not a faith-based author, so the storyline can include things that we may not replicate in our own lives. Feel free to look at reviews and read using your own discernment.
