Centennial Park Book Club

The Book Club for Troublesome Women by Marie Bostwick

This month we will discuss the book The Book Club for Troublesome Women. Please see the full description for more information.

In the early 1960s, Margaret Ryan, Viv Buschetti, and Bitsy Cobb are suburban housewives living in a brand-new planned community in Northern Virginia. On the surface, they seem to have it all, but deep down, they feel a sense of confusion and guilt, wondering if they are the problem. Their lives begin to change when they form a book club with their eccentric new neighbor, Charlotte Gustafson, who hails from Manhattan. Together, they read Betty Friedan's groundbreaking book, *The Feminine Mystique*, which challenges their perceptions of womanhood and fulfillment.

Copies of the book will be available at the February meeting or the Centennial Park Library Service Desk.
