**Hey book folk!**

We’re excited to announce our next book club meeting, where we'll be exploring a charming tale of resilience, friendship, and the power of literature. Our book this time is a delightful story set against the backdrop of post-World War II England.

**Book: The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society**

**Author: Mary Ann Shaffer**

Set in 1946, the story begins with Juliet Ashton, a writer searching for her next subject, who unexpectedly receives a letter from a man named Dawsey Adams on the island of Guernsey. This small act sparks a correspondence that introduces her to the quirky and lovable members of the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society—a book club formed as a cover during the German occupation.

Through a series of letters, Juliet learns about the lives of these islanders, their wartime experiences, and the unique bond they've formed through books. As she delves deeper into their world, she discovers a story of courage, hope, and the enduring human spirit in the face of hardship.

**Fun fact:** The novel was adapted into a Netflix film in 2018, bringing this heartwarming story to a wider audience.

Join us for a lively discussion as we explore this beautifully written tale and its cinematic adaptation that reminds us of the power of books to bring people together.
