Community Book Group - Black Widow

Book Group
12/10/2022 7:00 pm -8:00 pm
Rothley Community Library

Diana Jager is clever, strong and successful, a skilled surgeon and fierce campaigner via her blog about sexism. Yet it takes only hours for her life to crumble when her personal details are released on the internet as revenge for her writing.

Then she meets Peter. He's kind, generous, and knows nothing about her past: the second chance she's been waiting for.

Within six months, they are married. Within six more, Peter is dead in a road accident, a nightmare end to their fairytale romance.

But Peter's sister Lucy doesn't believe in fairytales, and tasks maverick reporter Jack Parlabane with discovering the dark truth behind the woman the media is calling Black Widow.

Community Book Group - Walking on Sunshine

Book Group
09/11/2022 7:00 pm -8:00 pm
Rothley Community Library

In the darkness we all need a little light . . .After Mike loses Pia, his partner of seventeen years, her best friends Vicky and Zaza try to help pick up the pieces. But though Pia's gone, she left a plan. A list of love and instructions to hold Mike and her best friends together. And they're each going to need it. Just-engaged Zaza fears committing any further. Mum Vicky can't see a way past her kids and back to her career. While Mike just feels lost without the love of his life. But when the list sends them to Peru, where high mountains and sweltering rain forest take them to the brink,
all they have to guide them is their faith in Pia's instructions and themselves.
