If you’re looking for your next great read, the Benbrook Public Library’s August book club selection blends coming-of-age storytelling, family secrets, and a soundtrack of 1970s rock and roll.
This month’s Bookmarked Book Club will discuss Mary Jane by Jessica Anya Blau on Wednesday, Aug. 5, at 11:15 a.m.
The novel follows a 14-year-old girl spending the summer of 1975 in Baltimore, where an ordinary babysitting job turns into an unforgettable adventure involving a famous rock star and his movie star wife. The story has been praised for its warmth, humor, nostalgia, and memorable characters.
Whether you’ve already read the book or are looking for an excuse to pick it up, the monthly discussion is a great way to connect with fellow readers in the community.
