(Formerly Known as the) Breakfast Club: "The Secret Lives of Church Ladies"

Join us for our first ever in-person, outdoor book club to discuss The Secret Lives of Church Ladies by local author Deesha Philyaw.

"Broken up into nine short stories, The Secret Lives of Church Ladies gives readers a peek into the lives of multiple women over four generations...While the collection of stories follows a slew of different religious Black women and girls, the one thing they all have in common is their deeply relatable struggle and yearning to express their individuality while trying to find themselves in the discipline of their beliefs. It’s incredibly moving. Even if one doesn’t personally practice a religion, readers will find a piece of themselves in one of the characters. We can all connect with the feeling of trying to fit, or break out of, a mold created by our society or upbringing." - Jordan Snowden, City Paper
