REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK (MARCH 2024)
Reese’s Book Club March 2024 pick is Anita de Monte Laughs Last by Xochitl Gonzalez.
Anita de Monte Laughs Last
By Xochitl Gonzalez
Publication Date: March 5, 2024
BUY ON AMAZON
A Reese’s Book Club pick, this novel by New York Times bestselling author Xochitl Gonzalez is named “A Most Anticipated Book of 2024” by TIME, Book Riot, The Washington Post and other reputable sources. A March 2024 Book of the Month pick described as “mesmerizing novel about a first-generation Ivy League student who uncovers the genius work of a female artist decades after her suspicious death”, here is the publisher’s book description of Anita de Monte Laughs Last.
1985. Anita de Monte, a rising star in the art world, is found dead in New York City; her tragic death is the talk of the town. Until it isn’t. By 1998 Anita’s name has been all but forgotten—certainly by the time Raquel, a third-year art history student is preparing her final thesis. On College Hill, surrounded by privileged students whose futures are already paved out for them, Raquel feels like an outsider. Students of color, like her, are the minority there, and the pressure to work twice as hard for the same opportunities is no secret.
But when Raquel becomes romantically involved with a well-connected older art student, she finds herself unexpectedly rising up the social ranks. As she attempts to straddle both worlds, she stumbles upon Anita’s story, raising questions about the dynamics of her own relationship, which eerily mirrors that of the forgotten artist.
Moving back and forth through time and told from the perspectives of both women, Anita de Monte Laughs Last is a propulsive, witty examination of power, love, and art, daring to ask who gets to be remembered and who is left behind in the rarefied world of the elite.

OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB PICK (MARCH 2024)
The current pick for Oprah’s Book Club is The Many Lives of Mama Love: A Memoir of Lying, Stealing, Writing, and Healing by Lara Love Harden (selected in late-February 2024).
The Many Lives of Mama Love
By Lara Love Harden
Publication Date: August 1, 2023
BUY ON AMAZON
An Oprah’s Book Club pick and Amazon #1 new release in dysfunctional families, this memoir is written by New York Times bestselling author Lara Love Hardin. A Goodreads Choice Award Nominee for Best Memoir and Autobiography (2023) described as a “heartbreaking and tender journey from shame to redemption”, here is the publisher’s book description of The Many Lives of Mama Love.
“Lara Love Hardin recounts her slide from soccer mom to opioid addict to jailhouse shot caller and her unlikely comeback as a highly successful ghostwriter in this harrowing, hilarious, no-holds-barred memoir.
The Many Lives of Mama Love (2023)
No one expects the police to knock on the door of the million-dollar two-story home of the perfect cul-de-sac housewife. But soccer mom Lara Love Hardin has been hiding a shady secret: she is funding her heroin addiction by stealing her neighbors’ credit cards.
Lara is convicted of thirty-two felonies and becomes inmate S32179. She finds that jail is a class system with a power structure that is somewhere between an adolescent sleepover party and Lord of the Flies. Furniture is made from tampon boxes, and Snickers bars are currency. But Lara quickly learns the rules and brings love and healing to her fellow inmates as she climbs the social ladder and acquires the nickname “Mama Love,” showing that jailhouse politics aren’t that different from the PTA meetings she used to attend.
When she’s released, she reinvents herself as a ghostwriter. Now, she’s legally co-opting other people’s identities and getting to meet Oprah, meditate with the Dalai Lama, and have dinner with Archbishop Desmond Tutu. But the shadow of her past follows her. Shame is a poison worse than heroin—there is no way to detox. Lara must learn how to forgive herself and others, navigate life as a felon on probation, and prove to herself that she is more good than bad, among other essential lessons.

By Cristina Henriquez
Publication Date: March 5, 2024
BUY ON AMAZON
A TODAY Show “Read with Jenna” book club pick and Amazon #1 best seller in family saga fiction, this novel by Cristina Henriquez is named a “Most Anticipated Book” by Goodreads, Book Riot, Washington Post, Reader’s Digest, ELLE and other reputable sources. Here is the publisher’s book description of The Great Divide.
A powerful novel about the construction of the Panama Canal, casting light on the unsung people who lived, loved, and labored there
It is said that the canal will be the greatest feat of engineering in history. But first, it must be built. For Francisco, a local fisherman who resents the foreign powers clamoring for a slice of his country, nothing is more upsetting than the decision of his son, Omar, to work as a digger in the excavation zone. But for Omar, whose upbringing was quiet and lonely, this job offers a chance to finally find connection.
Ada Bunting is a bold sixteen-year-old from Barbados who arrives in Panama as a stowaway alongside thousands of other West Indians seeking work. Alone and with no resources, she is determined to find a job that will earn enough money for her ailing sister’s surgery. When she sees a young man—Omar—who has collapsed after a grueling shift, she is the only one who rushes to his aid.
John Oswald has dedicated his life to scientific research and has journeyed to Panama in single-minded pursuit of one goal: eliminating malaria. But now, his wife, Marian, has fallen ill herself, and when he witnesses Ada’s bravery and compassion, he hires her on the spot as a caregiver. This fateful decision sets in motion a sweeping tale of ambition, loyalty, and sacrifice.
Searing and empathetic,The Great Divide explores the intersecting lives of activists, fishmongers, laborers, journalists, neighbors, doctors, and soothsayers—those rarely acknowledged by history even as they carved out its course.

THE HOUSE ON MANGO STREET
The House on Mango Street
By Sandra Cisneros
Publication Date: January 1, 1984
BUY ON AMAZON
A TODAY Show “Read with Jenna” book club pick, national bestseller and Amazon #1 best seller in Hispanic American literature and fiction, this coming-of-age, young adult classic is written by Sandra Cisneros (winner of the 2019 PEN/Nabokov Award for Achievement in International Literature). A beloved novel well known as a masterpiece, here is the publisher’s book description of The House on Mango Street.
A coming-of-age classic about a young Latina girl growing up in Chicago. Acclaimed by critics, beloved by readers of all ages, taught in schools and universities across the country, and translated all over the world, The House on Mango Street is the remarkable story of Esperanza Cordero.
The House on Mango Street is one of the most cherished novels of the last fifty years. Readers from all walks of life have fallen for the voice of Esperanza Cordero, growing up in Chicago and inventing for herself who and what she will become. “In English my name means hope,” she says. “In Spanish it means too many letters. It means sadness, it means waiting.”
The House on Mango Street (2024)
Told in a series of vignettes—sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes joyous—Cisneros’s masterpiece is a classic story of childhood and self-discovery and one of the greatest neighborhood novels of all time. Like Sinclair Lewis’s Main Street or Toni Morrison’s Sula, it makes a world through people and their voices, and it does so in language that is poetic and direct. This gorgeous coming-of-age novel is a celebration of the power of telling one’s story and of being proud of where you’re from. Few other books in our time have touched so many readers.

What if you thought you murdered your best friend? And if everyone else thought so too? And what if the truth doesn’t matter?
After Lucy is found wandering the streets, covered in her best friend Savvy’s blood, everyone thinks she is a murderer. Lucy and Savvy were the golden girls of their small Texas town: pretty, smart, and enviable. Lucy married a dream guy with a big ring and an even bigger new home. Savvy was the social butterfly loved by all, and if you believe the rumors, especially popular with the men in town. It’s been years since that horrible night, a night Lucy can’t remember anything about, and she has since moved to LA and started a new life.
But now the phenomenally huge hit true crime podcast “Listen for the Lie,” and its too-good looking host Ben Owens, have decided to investigate Savvy’s murder for the show’s second season. Lucy is forced to return to the place she vowed never to set foot in again to solve her friend’s murder, even if she is the one that did it.
The truth is out there, if we just listen.

BELLETRIST BOOK CLUB PICK (MARCH 2024)
The Belletrist Book Club March 2024 pick is Piglet by Lottie Hazell.
Piglet
By Lottie Hazell
Publication Date: February 27, 2024
BUY ON AMAZON
A Belletrist book club pick, this novel by Lottie Hazell is an Amazon #1 best seller in absurdist fiction. It is described as “an elegant, razor-sharp debut about women’s ambitions and appetites – and the truth about having it all”. Here is the publisher’s book description of Piglet.
Outside of a childhood nickname she can’t shake, Piglet’s rather pleased with how her life’s turned out. An up-and-coming cookbook editor at a London publishing house, she’s got lovely, loyal friends and a handsome fiancé, Kit, whose rarefied family she actually, most of the time, likes, despite their upper-class eccentricities. One of the many, many things Kit loves about Piglet is the delicious, unfathomably elaborate meals she’s always cooking.
Piglet (2024)
But when Kit confesses a horrible betrayal two weeks before they’re set to be married, Piglet finds herself suddenly…hungry. The couple decides to move forward with the wedding as planned, but as it nears and Piglet balances family expectations, pressure at work, and her quest to make the perfect cake, she finds herself increasingly unsettled, behaving in ways even she can’t explain. Torn between a life she’s always wanted and the ravenousness that comes with not getting what she knows she deserves, Piglet is, by the day of her wedding, undone, but also ready to look beyond the lies we sometimes tell ourselves to get by.
A stylish, uncommonly clever novel about the things we want and the things we think we want, Piglet is both an examination of women’s often complicated relationship with food and a celebration of the messes life sometimes makes for us.

Notes on Your Sudden Disappearance
By Alison Espach
Publication Date: May 17, 2022
BUY ON AMAZON
A THP Reads book club pick and Amazon editors’ pick in best literature and fiction, Notes on Your Sudden Disappearance is written by New York Times Editor’s Choice author Alison Espach. It was named a Best Book of 2022 by NPR and The Chicago Tribune. Here is the publisher’s book description of Notes on Your Sudden Disappearance.
An enthralling, redemptive novel set in Bangkok in 1972 and Washington, DC, in 2019 about an expatriate child who goes missing, whose family is contacted decades later by a man claiming to be the vanished boy.
For much of her life, Sally Holt has been mystified by the things her older sister, Kathy, seems to have been born knowing. Kathy has answers for all of Sally’s questions about life, about love, and about Billy Barnes, a rising senior and local basketball star who mans the concession stand at the town pool. The girls have been fascinated by Billy ever since he jumped off the roof in elementary school, but Billy has never shown much interest in them until the summer before Sally begins eighth grade. By then, their mutual infatuation with Billy is one of the few things the increasingly different sisters have in common. Sally spends much of that summer at the pool, watching in confusion and excitement as her sister falls deeper in love with Billy—until a tragedy leaves Sally’s life forever intertwined with his.
Opening in the early nineties and charting almost two decades of shared history and missed connections, Notes on Your Sudden Disappearance is both a breathtaking love story about two broken people who are unexplainably, inconveniently drawn to each other and a wryly astute coming-of-age tale brimming with unexpected moments of joy.
