What we’re about
Hey Folks! I'm new to the area and don't have a car so I wanted to create a book club that's easy to get to. I'm planning to have a meeting once or twice a month around the Rittenhouse area. You don't have to live around here to join as long as you can make it.
For security purposes I do ask that your profile pic be a picture of you.
Hope to see you soon!

See all- The Plot by Jean Hanff KorelitzNeeds location
"Hailed as "breathtakingly suspenseful," Jean Hanff Korelitz’s The Plot is a propulsive read about a story too good not to steal, and the writer who steals it.
Jacob Finch Bonner was once a promising young novelist with a respectably published first book. Today, he’s teaching in a third-rate MFA program and struggling to maintain what’s left of his self-respect; he hasn’t written—let alone published—anything decent in years. When Evan Parker, his most arrogant student, announces he doesn’t need Jake’s help because the plot of his book in progress is a sure thing, Jake is prepared to dismiss the boast as typical amateur narcissism. But then . . . he hears the plot."I'll stop right there so I don't give too much away : )
The Plot: A Novel by Jean Hanff Korelitz, Paperback | Barnes & Noble®
“Korelitz’s own plot is fiendishly clever, and here's the ultimate twist: that any novel about a writer’s life (lonely, anxious drudgery) could be this wildly suspenseful and entertaining.”
—People, Book of the Week“As a longtime fan of Korelitz’s novels (including “You Should Have Known,” which was made into HBO’s “The Undoing”), I will say that I think The Plot is her gutsiest, most consequential book yet. It keeps you guessing and wondering, and also keeps you thinking: about ambition, fame and the nature of intellectual property (the analog kind).”
