Book Description
Life always gives us a second chance... Newly widowed novelist Olivia Hammond is at loose ends-until an unexpected discovery resurfaces a long-ago secret about her past. As she embarks on a book tour for her new novel, Livvie reconnects with Robert Yardley, her first love. During a road trip to Robert's Southern childhood home, the two dissect their splintered relationship and the life they might have had. 1965, New York City. In an era when women were relegated to the role of office girls, young, ambitious magazine writer Livvie meets legendary photojournalist Robert while covering the Great Northeastern Blackout. Theirs is a globe-spanning, news-chasing romance worthy of Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy. Livvie imagines it lasting forever-but instead, it burns bright and fast, for reasons she's never entirely sure of, and irrevocably alters the course of her future. Alternating between the past and the present, September Girl is about a changing era, about the reasons we keep secrets, and about whether the life we would have chosen is ever the life we were meant to lead. Includes a reading group guide and book club discussion questions. "Choices. Consequences. And the most selfish of secrets. The three most captivating elements of any story. Add in twists, turns, travel and romance, and I loved loved loved September Girl."―Linda Yellin, author of What Nora Knew and The Last Blind Date
