Historical Fiction Book Club

Recipe for a Perfect Wife by Karma Brown

Join our book club with a historical twist! Ages 18+ Recipe for a Perfect Wife by Karma Brown

A dual narrative in which a woman finds a cookbook buried in the basement of her new home and becomes captivated with the cookbook's previous owner, a 1950s housewife. Dissatisfied with her own life, she becomes absorbed in learning the story--and the secrets--of the last woman who lived in her house.

Sessions are led by our own professional book lovers (a.k.a. OPL staff members). 

The book club will take place at the Central Branch in the auditorium on the 2nd floor.

A copy of the book club title can be picked up at the Central Branch at the 3rd floor service desk.
