Library Book Hold: Joy for Beginners by Erica Bauermeister

 



The Prairie Pages Book Club over at Modern Prairie is reading Joy for Beginners by Erica Bauermeister this month. I haven't been reading with them lately because my schedule conflicts with our monthly Zoom meeting, but I requested a hold on this book from my local library. 

At an intimate, festive dinner party in Seattle, six women gather to celebrate their friend Kate's recovery from cancer. Wineglass in hand, Kate strikes a bargain with them. To celebrate her new lease on life, she'll do the one thing that's always terrified her: white-water rafting down the Grand Canyon. But if she goes, each of them must promise to do one thing in the next year that is new, or difficult, or scary—and Kate gets to choose their challenges.

Shimmering with warmth, wit, and insight, Joy for Beginners is a celebration of life: unexpected, lyrical, and deeply satisfying.

Doesn't this sound wonderful? It's currently available in hardcover, paperback, audiobook, and on Kindle
