This will be a quick installment for this month’s nightstand post, but I really did want to share a book with you that I read last week and would definitely recommend as a good read. It is called The Wednesday Sisters and was written by Meg Waite Clayton.

It is about a group of women who meet in a neighborhood park in California in the late 1960s and become friends, but who also become writers together. I was very drawn in by the characters and the way the events and culture of the time is portrayed, as well as the unique aspect of their forming a writers’ group. I am very interested now to read her first novel, The Language of Light.
