What we’re about
Welcome to the San Antonio Book Lovers Club
This is a space that you can bring your book/reading suggestions that you would like to share and participate in lively discussions with a group of fellow book lovers.
Our discussions are fairly free form, I will provide some discussion points about the reading and let the conversation flow. This is NOT a traditional structured type book club.
We will cover many topics from short stories, poetry, historical fiction, non-fiction, biographies, etc. The intent is for this group to be fueled by your input!
Happy Reading!

Vertity by Coleen Hoover / suggested by Lindsey and MurphyLowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford, husband of bestselling author Verity Crawford, has hired Lowen to complete the remaining books in a successful series his injured wife is unable to finish.
Lowen arrives at the Crawford home, ready to sort through years of Verity's notes and outlines, hoping to find enough material to get her started. What Lowen doesn't expect to uncover in the chaotic office is an unfinished autobiography Verity never intended for anyone to read. Page after page of bone-chilling admissions, including Verity's recollection of what really happened the day her daughter died.
Lowen decides to keep the manuscript hidden from Jeremy, knowing its contents would devastate the already grieving father. But as Lowen's feelings for Jeremy begin to intensify, she recognizes all the ways she could benefit if he were to read his wife's words. After all, no matter how devoted Jeremy is to his injured wife, a truth this horrifying would make it impossible for him to continue to love her.

We will meet at Black Potion

Michelangelo and the Pope's Ceiling/ suggested by Joy SPope Julius II commissioned Michelangelo Buonarroti to paint the ceiling of the newly restored Sistine Chapel in Rome. Michelangelo had little experience as a frescoist. Despite his initial reluctance and subsequent disagreements with Julius, Michelangelo perseveres. King addresses a number of myths generated over the years (many of which were propagated in the book and film drama The Agony and the Ecstasy) about the process and completion of the frescoes.
