So my awesome publisher has produced a nice glossy advance-reading-copy edition of STARLIGHT ON WILLOW LAKE.
I know all writers will tell you “this book has a special place in my heart,” but this one REALLY does. After you read the dedication page in the front and the acknowledgment page in the back you’ll know why.
It’s a good book club topic. The storyline deals with with tragedy, a person’s role in caring for a parent, and how exploring the past can lead to a whole new perspective on life. Just as bonus, there are dogs, comedy, Balinese cooking, a few cuss words. and love scenes that will curl your toes but not offend your mother. Swear.
You know what’s missing? A reading group guide. I’d love your help with this. What’s the most thought-provoking topic your group has every discussed?
I have 15 copies of the ARC (pub-speak for “advance reading copy”) to give away. Here’s how to enter. Send the name of your book group, along with a contact person and mailing address, to susanmwiggs (at) gmail dot com, and fifteen winners will be chosen at random on May 1. You’ll receive the ARC along with some other goodies for readers to enjoy long before the book gets published.
Sound good?

I have never been in a book club, but am starting one with 6 women. Our first meeting is May 5th where we will establish a name, guidelines, hosting details, and anything else we think of. I would love to have ARC’s for the group to begin our journey.

I would love to have two copies, one for my friend Lisa and I. I live in a low-income, subudized housing apartment with a lot of senior and any free to read books is greatly appreciated to add to the very emply book cases in the lobby. If you want to send a 3rd copy, I know it will be well-read and very much appreciated. Several of us in the building read and share books between us.

I would love to get a copy for my grandmother and her friends. There’s a group of them, they don’t get out of the house much, so the books are passed along, but they read a book in just a day or two because they are home bound. Thank you for your consideration. Judie
