I am excited to announce that The Southern Summer Book Club is back for another round, y’all! We hope you’ll join us as we continue to build literary communities throughout the South. Plus, being a part of our book club is a great way to celebrate contemporary Southern lit. And I know we all love that!
Without further ado, I’m thrilled to announce our reads for this upcoming summer:
June
Aimee Nezhukumatathil’s Night Owl
July
Tommy Hays’ The Marriage Bed
August
Spencer K. M. Brown’s Slow Fire
How The Southern Summer Book Club Works
First of all, be sure to order your books from your local independent bookstore (or check out a copy at your local library). We’ll post about each book at the start of the month in which it’s featured. Read early, if you can, because we are going to do video interviews with our book club’s authors at the end of the month, and we are going to be asking you to help us with questions. Keep an eye out on social media for how to submit a question.
Happy reading, everyone! I hope you enjoy these reads as much as I have. Let’s have a great summer of outstanding Southern literature!
