There's nothing better than curling up with a warm cup of apple cider and reading a book like The Golden Oldies' Book Club by Judy Leigh. This is a lovely holiday read.
Synopsis:
The heartbeat of Combe Pomeroy is Jeannie Doyenne, owner of the local apple cider farm. The community is a big part of Jeannie's life, and she has many friends. In addition to caring for her very spirited, hilarious 90-year-old mother and her teenage grandchildren, Jeannie also needs some loving care. Has she finally reached retirement age? What is in store for her future?
As Jeannie and her friends navigate life in Combe Pomeroy, readers will enjoy the cozy atmosphere and humorous banter. It is a time of change and friends are put to the test. The year includes a French exchange trip with the book club and a number of glorious farm celebrations. Will some of the friends finally get the love they seek?
A fun reading atmosphere is created by the characters. The book is free of graphic violence. If you love books that leave you feeling warm and happy, this is the perfect story.
The Golden Oldies' Book Club is available on December 6th.
