Don't let the winter blues get you down! Why not put our next book club meeting on your calendar and give yourself something to look forward to? In February we will be discussing The Many Lives & Secret Sorrows of Josephine B by Sandra Gulland.
Book description from Amazon: "In this first of three books inspired by the life of Josephine Bonaparte, Sandra Gulland has created a novel of immense and magical proportions. We meet Josephine in the exotic and lush Martinico, where an old island woman predicts that one day she will be queen. The journey from the remote village of her birth to the height of European elegance is long, but Josephine's fortune proves to be true. By way of fictionalized diary entries, we traverse her early years as she marries her one true love, bears his children, and is left betrayed, widowed, and penniless. It is Josephine's extraordinary charm, cunning, and will to survive that catapults her to the heart of society, where she meets Napoleon, whose destiny will prove to be irrevocably intertwined with hers."
Looking ahead: Book club meets at 7 pm on the third Tuesday of every month in locations all over San Diego as chosen by book club members. The book club selection for March is The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman.
