- Summary
- Is it ever too late to rewrite your own story? Courage. In 1950, teenager Anne flees Wattle Island, desperate to make her own way in the big city. As she begins to establish her new life, though, she is faced with a choice that could destroy all she has worked so hard for. Then when tragedy strikes, establishing the Wattle Island Book Club is the only thing that offers her solace. Passion. Spirited librarian Grace has been writing bucket lists since she was a child, and is ticking off as many challenges as she can now that life has handed her a hefty dose of perspective. Heading to Wattle Island on one of her adventures, she is determined to uncover a long-held mystery surrounding the town's historic book club, unlocking a buried truth that has been trapped between the dusty pages of secrecy for years. Hope. All too aware of how fragile life is, Anne and Grace must come together to help the residents of Wattle Island find the bravery to move beyond the trauma that tore the book club apart. Budding relationships offer new hope, along with a library project for the town's future - but it will take more than a few lively literary debates to break the silence and heal the past. Welcome to the Wattle Island Book Club, where new chapters begin and end, and not everyone is telling the full story
