This month’s Books & Banter Book Club pick:

The Memory Library
by Kate Storey
$18.99 Book club price: $17.09
Paperback, 336 pp

Step into the heartwarming world of The Memory Library, a novel that celebrates the enduring power of love, forgiveness, and the stories that bind us together.

For forty-two years, Sally Harrison has quietly built a sanctuary of memories—a library dedicated to her only child, Ella. Every year on Ella’s birthday, Sally adds a book to the collection, each one inscribed with a heartfelt note, a tribute to her daughter and the life they once shared. But the library remains unopened. Two decades ago, after a heated argument, Ella fled to Australia and never looked back.

Now, life takes an unexpected turn. A crisis forces Ella to return to the home she left behind, confronting the ghosts of the past and the mother she’s long avoided. Within the walls of her childhood home, Ella stumbles upon the shelves filled with years of silent devotion. What she finds there is a testament to her mother’s love and an invitation to rediscover their bond.

Kate Storey’s novel is a beautifully woven tale of second chances, resilience, and the healing power of stories. Perfect for fans of Sally Page’s The Keeper of Stories, this novel reminds us that when one chapter ends, another is waiting to begin—all you have to do is turn the page.

Join us for this month’s book club discussion to explore Sally and Ella’s journey, the complexities of family relationships, and the redemptive magic of storytelling. Come ready to share your thoughts on the power of books to bridge even the widest divides. We’ll provide wine, appetizers, and a cozy atmosphere to dive into this unforgettable story!.
