Tuesday, August 30th

Maggie, a young seamstress with a small daughter and several painful secrets, sees postings soliciting “eligible women” to travel to the gold mines of California. So she joins forty-three other women and two pious reverends on the dangerous 2,000-mile journey west. None of them are prepared for the hardships they will face and not all will make it. As Maggie gets to know the other women, she soon discovers that she’s not the only one looking to leave dark secrets behind. And when her past catches up with her, it becomes clear a band of sisters will do whatever it takes to protect one of their own.

The Forest of Vanishing Stars by Kristin Hannah

In 1941 a young woman living alone in the wilderness of eastern Europe happens upon a group of Jews fleeing the Nazis. Stunned to learn what’s happening in the outside world, she teaches the group all she can about surviving in the forest–and in turn, they teach her some surprising lessons about opening her heart after years of isolation. But when she is betrayed, her past and present come together in a shocking collision that could change everything.
