It’s always an exciting day . . . when Bonny and Carole and I announce our newest Read With Us selection!

This fall, we invite you to join us in reading . . .

Partita, Barbara Kingsolver’s newest novel.

The publisher’s blurb explains this brand-new release this way:

Partita is the story of a brief, passionate, life-changing love affair, wrapped up in what might be the greatest romance of all: our eternal human longing for art and beauty.

While Bonny and Carole read (and loved) advance copies of this book, I have not . . . so I can’t share my personal reading experience with you (yet). But I will say that I took my sister and brother-in-law back to the airport very, very early this morning . . . and started listening to it in the car on my way back home. I was immediately hooked by the story, and can’t wait to keep listening!

I hope you’ll also be intrigued – and curious enough about a new Barbara Kingsolver novel – to pick up this brand new book and Read With Us!

Bonny and Carole and I will be talking more about the book and providing additional background information for you in blog posts over the next several weeks. Then . . . mark your calendars for our blog book discussions/Zoom discussion on Tuesday, January 5, 2027 (7:00 pm Eastern time). (And, yeah. It said January 12 earlier but I messed up and Vicki caught it and now it’s the correct date . . . January 5.)

C’mon along!
Settle into a cozy corner, grab your book, and  . . . Read With Us!
