📚 August Book Club 📚

Summer schedules are busy, so we’re keeping it simple this month with one Book Club!

Join us on Friday, August 28 from 6–8 PM as we dive into Daggermouth by H.M. Wolfe.

If your BookTok has been filled with this one, now’s your chance to see what all the hype is about. Think true enemies-to-lovers, a failed assassination, a forced political marriage, morally gray characters, and a dystopian world where rebellion is just waiting to ignite.

We’ve been thinking about this book since it was independently published so we’re dying to talk about it with you all!

Who’s reading this one with us? 👀
