Introducing our December book club book of the month !! 📖

Introducing our December book club book of the month !! 📖 This month we’ll be reading The Names, by Florence Knapp. It’s easily the best book I’ve read all year and I think it will be the perfect book to chat about as a book club. If you didn’t get a ticket to our December event, you can join in the convo on Fable app - just type in Lucy’s Book Club to find us! :) It’s about a woman who goes to register her son’s birth, and the 3 alternate realities and paths that the son and who family’s life will follow based on whatever name she chooses. It will make you think a lot about how every small decision we make has come kind of impact on our life. It’s very VERY moving, but incredibly well written. There are some upsetting scenes so please do your research before reading. I can’t wait to see what you think of this book.

Florence Knapp introduces her debut novel The Names, publishing next month. 🍃 Spanning thirty-five years, the novel follows three alternate and alternating versions of Cora's and her young son's lives, shaped by her choice of a name. With exceptional sensitivity and depth, Knapp draws us into the story of this family, told through a prism of what-ifs, exploring the power of choice and the ripple effects of a single decision. 🍃 ‘I’ve just been blown away by the best debut novel in years’ Sunday Times 🍃 ‘I’m in AWE. Powerful, moving and beautiful’ Marian Keyes (@marian_keyes) 🍃 ‘An utter original’ JoJo Moyes (@jojomoyesofficial) 🍃 ‘Beautiful and heart-wrenching... this one will stay with me for years to come’ Miranda Cowley Heller (@mirandacowleyhellerauthor) #TheNames #FlorenceKnapp #PhoenixBooks #DebutNovel #LiteraryFiction
