Looking for a great book to read? This historical fiction set in southern West Virginia rocked me to my core. I listened to it on Audible--so if you have a big trip or spend a lot of time in the car like I do, this is fantastic! Seriously. So good. It is our next WV Living Book Club selection and the author will be on hand to discuss his book at The FARM—Food Arts Recreation Market on August 1. I hope you can join us--either in person or virtually. If you already have the book or listened to it, we've added an option where you can attend in person without purchasing the book. Our theme is Coal Camp Creativity--so I'm wearing my bib overalls and bandana, and we are serving pepperoni rolls, coal cupcakes, and a few other fun treats! (Just seeing me in my bib overalls is worth the price of admission. 😂) Visit https://wvliving.com/book-club/ to register!
