The Book Haters’ Book Club
Book Feature - The Book Haters’ Book Club by Gretchen Anthony
HBL Note: I first featured Gretchen Anthony with the release of her previous novel, The Kids Are Going to Ask, which was a fun contemporary novel that is sure to bring a smile to your face. Now she’s back with a new novel, THE BOOK HATERS’ BOOK CLUB. The title alone brought a smile to my face so I knew the book would be filled with humor and hijinks. What I hadn’t anticipated was that this novel is full of actual reading recommendations, so if you don’t get enough book recommendations here at HBL (ha!) then you can add to your list after reading THE BOOK HATERS’ BOOK CLUB.
"This sparkling novel starts with high energy and unique characters that move from one surprise to another all the way to the final pages." —Ann Garvin, USA Today bestselling author of I Thought You Said This Would Work
Book Feature - The Book Haters’ Book Club by Gretchen Anthony
From the publisher:
All it takes is the right book to turn a Book Hater into a Book Lover…
That was what Elliot—the beloved co-owner of Over the Rainbow Bookshop—believed before his untimely passing. He always had the perfect book suggestion for the self-proclaimed Book Hater. Now his grief-ridden business partner, Irma, has agreed to sell the cozy Over the Rainbow to condo developers.
But others won’t give up the bookshop without a fight. When Irma breaks the news to her daughters, Bree and Laney, and Elliot’s romantic partner, Thom, they are aghast. Over the Rainbow has been Bree and Laney’s sanctuary since childhood, and Thom would do anything to preserve Elliot’s legacy. Together they conspire to save the bookshop, even if it takes some snooping, gossip and minor sabotage.
Filled with humor, family hijinks and actual reading recommendations, The Book Haters' Book Club is the ideal feel-good read. It’s a love letter to everyday heroes—those booksellers and librarians dedicated to putting the right books in the right hands every day.
