This month we are reading “The Push” by Ashley Audrain. After the birth of her first born, Blythe is convinced that Violet is not her daughter. Blythe’s husband, Fox, believes it’s all in her head. Then her second child, Sam, is born. Blythe finally has that motherly instinct she was missing with Violet. Once disaster strikes, Blythe is left having to face the truth.

We will meet August 11th, 2025 from 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm to discuss our book of the month. Please see the front desk at the Parman Library for a copy while supplies last.
