Reese’s Book Club Latest Picks

Before we get into all the amazing details of the Reese’s Book Club Fall Reading Challenge, we have to ask first . . . do you want to jump in on the latest Reese’s Book Club selections too? As of now (at the time of writing), here are Reese’s latest selections for the 2023 fall season, that promise to delight your reading senses – it’s good to get familiar, they just might make an appearance in the fall reading challenge too!

Reese’ Book Club Pick (October 2023)

Reese’s Book Club October 2023 pick is Starling House by Alix E. Harrow.

Starling House
By Alix E. Harrow
Publication Date: October 3, 2023
BUY ON AMAZON

A Reese’s Book Club pick, Book of the Month pick and Amazon editors’ pick for best science fiction and fantasy, this novel by New York Times bestselling author Alix E. Harrow is described as “a gorgeously modern gothic fantasy”. Here is the publisher’s book description of Starling House.

I dream sometimes about a house I’ve never seen….

Opal is a lot of things—orphan, high school dropout, full-time cynic and part-time cashier—but above all, she’s determined to find a better life for her younger brother Jasper. One that gets them out of Eden, Kentucky, a town remarkable for only two things: bad luck and E. Starling, the reclusive nineteenth century author of The Underland, who disappeared over a hundred years ago.

All she left behind were dark rumors—and her home. Everyone agrees that it’s best to ignore the uncanny mansion and its misanthropic heir, Arthur. Almost everyone, anyway.

I should be scared, but in the dream I don’t hesitate.

Opal has been obsessed with The Underland since she was a child. When she gets the chance to step inside Starling House—and make some extra cash for her brother’s escape fund—she can’t resist.

But sinister forces are digging deeper into the buried secrets of Starling House, and Arthur’s own nightmares have become far too real. As Eden itself seems to be drowning in its own ghosts, Opal realizes that she might finally have found a reason to stick around.

In my dream, I’m home.

And now she’ll have to fight.

Welcome to Starling House: enter, if you dare.

Reese’s Book Club Pick (September 2023)

Reese’s Book Club (September 2023) pick is Mother-Daughter Murder Night by Nina Simon.

Mother-Daughter Murder Night
By Nina Simon
Publication Date: September 5, 2023
BUY ON AMAZON

A Reese’s Book Club pick, Amazon best seller and editors’ pick for best mystery, thriller and suspense, this novel is described as “Gilmore Girls, but with murder”. Here is the publisher’s book description of Mother-Daughter Murder Night.

High-powered businesswoman Lana Rubicon has a lot to be proud of: her keen intelligence, impeccable taste, and the L.A. real estate empire she’s built. But when she finds herself trapped 300 miles north of the city, convalescing in a sleepy coastal town with her adult daughter Beth and teenage granddaughter Jack, Lana is stuck counting otters instead of square footage—and hoping that boredom won’t kill her before the cancer does.

Then Jack—tiny in stature but fiercely independent—happens upon a dead body while kayaking. She quickly becomes a suspect in the homicide investigation, and the Rubicon women are thrown into chaos. Beth thinks Lana should focus on recovery, but Lana has a better idea. She’ll pull on her wig, find the true murderer, protect her family, and prove she still has power.

With Jack and Beth’s help, Lana uncovers a web of lies, family vendettas, and land disputes lurking beneath the surface of a community populated by folksy conservationists and wealthy ranchers. But as their amateur snooping advances into ever-more dangerous territory, the headstrong Rubicon women must learn to do the one thing they’ve always resisted: depend on each other.Mother-Daughter Murder Night (2023)
