Book Clubs

Is your book club reading Florence Adler Swims Forever or The House Is On Fire? Both novels make terrific book club selections because, in the aftermath of great tragedies, there are never any easy answers.

If your book club is meeting online, I’m happy to Zoom with you. And if your book club is located within twenty miles of downtown Richmond, I can come visit with you in person. Usually, I spend about forty-five minutes talking about the writing process and answering questions, and then I leave you to your own discussion and socializing.

Scheduling a book club visit is easy:

  1. Complete the form below, with your top three dates and times.
  2. I’ll respond and we’ll set a tentative date.
  3. You’ll order a bundle of eight autographed books (either Florence Adler Swims Forever or The House Is On Fire) through my local independent bookseller Shelf Life Books. Use the promo code BEANLANDBOOKCLUB to get free shipping on your purchase.
  4. Shelf Life Books will confirm with me that the order was received and that all systems are go!
  5. If we’re doing a virtual visit, at least two days before the event, you’ll send me a Zoom link, so I know how to find you:-)

Can’t make a book club visit work? No worries. Simon & Schuster has put together some great reading group guides to get your club’s conversation going:
