I had an amazing time connecting with these wonderful women at our recent Tom Lake Book Club gathering. Ann Pratchett's novel, "Tom Lake," has garnered immense popularity, topping numerous bestseller lists and amassing a dedicated following. Our inaugural book club session, hosted by Agnes Wolfe, the podcast host of Authors' Alcove, brought together a diverse panel including Rebecca Maeve Hartwell, author of "Heart of Flame" and esteemed editor, Marie Manning, an aspiring author, and Amber Letters, a passionate bookworm. Together, we delved into the intricacies of Pratchett's work, sparking lively discussions and sharing our insights.
