SUMMARY:April Fantasy Book Club: An Education in Malice
DESCRIPTION:The first Thursday of each month celebrates a new fantasy read and this month it’s An Education in Malice by S.T. Gibson! \n\n\n\nSumptuous and addictive\, An Education in Malice is a dark academia tale of blood\, secrets and insatiable hungers from S.T. Gibson\, author of the cult hit A Dowry of Blood. \n\n\n\nDeep in the forgotten hills of Massachusetts stands Saint Perpetua’s College. Isolated and ancient\, it is not a place for timid girls. Here\, secrets are currency\, ambition is lifeblood\, and strange ceremonies welcome students into the fold. \n\n\n\nOn her first day of class\, Laura Sheridan is thrust into an intense academic rivalry with the beautiful and enigmatic Carmilla. Together\, they are drawn into the confidence of their demanding poetry professor\, De Lafontaine\, who holds her own dark obsession with Carmilla. \n\n\n\nBut as their rivalry blossoms into something far more delicious\, Laura must confront her own strange hungers. Tangled in a sinister game of politics\, bloodthirsty professors and magic\, Laura and Carmilla must decide how much they are willing to sacrifice in their ruthless pursuit of knowledge.

SUMMARY:April Bestsellers Book Club: The Women by Kristin Hannah
DESCRIPTION:We’re delighted to be featuring The Women by Kristin Hannah in this month’s bestsellers book club. As always\, the book is available at 10% off special book club pricing. Our clubs are free and open to all – you bring the conversation\, we’ll supply the treats! \n\n\n\nA #1 bestseller on The New York Times\, USA Today\, Washington Post\, and Los Angeles Times!From the celebrated author of The Nightingale and The Four Winds comes Kristin Hannah’s The Women–at once an intimate portrait of coming of age in a dangerous time and an epic tale of a nation divided. \n\n\n\nWomen can be heroes. When twenty-year-old nursing student Frances “Frankie” McGrath hears these words\, it is a revelation. Raised in the sun-drenched\, idyllic world of Southern California and sheltered by her conservative parents\, she has always prided herself on doing the right thing.  \n\n\n\nBut in 1965\, the world is changing\, and she suddenly dares to imagine a different future for herself. When her brother ships out to serve in Vietnam\, she joins the Army Nurse Corps and follows his path. As green and inexperienced as the men sent to Vietnam to fight\, Frankie is overwhelmed by the chaos and destruction of war.  \n\n\n\nEach day is a gamble of life and death\, hope and betrayal; friendships run deep and can be shattered in an instant. In war\, she meets–and becomes one of–the lucky\, the brave\, the broken\, and the lost. But war is just the beginning for Frankie and her veteran friends.  \n\n\n\nThe real battle lies in coming home to a changed and divided America\, to angry protesters\, and to a country that wants to forget Vietnam. The Women is the story of one woman gone to war\, but it shines a light on all women who put themselves in harm’s way and whose sacrifice and commitment to their country has too often been forgotten.  \n\n\n\nA novel about deep friendships and bold patriotism\, The Women is a richly drawn story with a memorable heroine whose idealism and courage under fire will come to define an era.
