PC Reads October Selection Is “The Briar Club”
Kate Quinn
“The Briar Club” is the powerful and haunting story of female friendships and secrets in a Washington, D.C., boarding house during the McCarthy era. Kate Quinn is the New York Times bestselling author of “The Diamond Eye” and “The Rose Code.” She is one of the best historical fiction writers working today.
The group will meet to discuss the book on Thursday, Oct. 2., at 4 p.m. in the LifeLong Learning (LLL) Activity Center. To join the discussion you need to register for the class. Go to the LifeLong Learning site at lifelonglearningatpc.org and then go to PC Reads. This is a casual group that was started for PebbleCreekers who want to discuss books they have read. You can come once, or monthly. If you have any questions, you can contact Pat Jensen at patjensenmom@gmail.com.
