October Book Club: Calamity Club
Book Club: The Calamity Club Join us at New Wineskin Emporium for a thoughtful conversation about The Calamity Club by Kathryn Stockett, author of The Help. Set in 1933 Mississippi, this story follows an eleven-year-old girl and a group of determined women whose lives come together in unexpected ways. Blending humor and heartbreak, the novel explores friendship, resilience, and the courage to imagine a different future. Together, we’ll discuss the characters, their difficult choices, and how their experiences invite us to think about belonging, second chances, and the strength we find in community. Bring your book, your thoughts, and your favorite passages to share. Whether you’re a regular member or joining us for the first time, we’d love to have you be part of the conversation!
