I’m excited to announce our April book club selection!
This month we are reading The Four Ms. Bradwells, written by author Meg Waite Clayton. For those who attended the Napa Escape (2009), we read and discussed The Wednesday Sisters with Meg, setting the bar high for future Escape selections.

We will be discussing The Four Ms. Bradwells on Wednesday April 20th, at 8PM EST. Meg will be wearing her pearls, will you?
Synopsis: Mia, Laney, Betts, and Ginger, best friends since law school, have reunited for a long weekend as Betts awaits Senate confirmation of her appointment to the Supreme Court. Nicknamed “the Ms. Bradwells” during their first class at the University of Michigan Law School in 1979—when only three women had ever served full Senate terms and none had been appointed to the Court—the four have supported one another through life’s challenges: marriages and divorces, births and deaths, career setbacks and triumphs large and small. Betts was, and still is, the Funny One. Ginger, the Rebel. Laney, the Good Girl. And Mia, the Savant.
But when the Senate hearings uncover a deeply buried skeleton in the friends’ collective closet, the Ms. Bradwell’s retreat to a summer house on the Chesapeake Bay, where they find themselves reliving a much darker period in their past—one that stirs up secrets they’ve kept for, and from, one another, and could change their lives forever.

Winners will be selected at random on Wednesday evening, March 9th.

Hi Mommies!
I’m reading this one right now–and loving the friendships–just like in WEDNESDAY SISTERS. I LOVE that y’all are wearing your pearls–a wonderful homage to the book cover!
Cheers!

Sounds great!
This looks like a good book. As a lawyer, I enjoy but am sometimes annoyed by lawyer fiction, but this sounds like a really interested approach to the story.
