Our November Book is Blue Sisters by Coco Mellors!
Since this time last year, we had the joy of reading Little Women as a book club, it felt only right that we continue that tradition with a modern take on sisterhood. In Mellor’s Blue Sisters, three estranged siblings return to their family home in New York after their beloved sister's death. What follows is a beautiful story of grief, identity, and the complexities of family.

Watching Lately
Putting this show on your radar if it isn’t already…Say Nothing from FX on Hulu. It come’s out on 11/14, based on the book by the same name. I had the opportunity to screen the first two episodes early, and I mean it when I say it’s one of the best shows I’ve seen in a long time.
Listening Lately
If you’re a fan of scripted audiobooks, let me put you onto Meet Cute. Their latest series, Burn Baby, from executive producer Sara Shepard (Pretty Little Liars), is perfect for rom com and mystery lovers alike. Love triangle, anyone?
It tells the story of 22 year-old Kat Tracy, who never thought she'd leave her tiny hometown of Berlin, Minnesota. But when her mom – small town mystery book lover Alice Tracy – dies and leaves her with one last puzzle, Kat makes the first impulsive decision of her life and books a last-minute flight to LaGuardia to solve Alice's final puzzle.
