Prairie Wife Virtual Book Club: December 2025
Posted November 29, 2025 by Prairie Wife -

It’s time to announce our book for the Prairie Wife Virtual Book Club: December 2025
PLEASE NOTE that this month’s book club is earlier than usual due to the holiday season.
This monthly Virtual Book Club is all thanks to Wind City Books, an Indie Bookstore in Downtown Casper, Wyoming.
Miranda from Wind City Books can ship our book club book WHEREVER YOU LIVE, so please use the link provided below to purchase your Prairie Wife Book Club books. I strongly encourage buying your book from Wind City Books. You’ll be supporting a local Indie Bookstore, and they can quickly ship the book directly to your home. If you order now, you’ll receive it in plenty of time to finish it before book club. You can also listen to the book through Libro.fm It works just like Audible, but you have the option to support your local Indie Bookstore with your purchases.
So, how does The Prairie Wife Virtual Book Club Work?
It’s easy (I promise) and available to ANYONE who wants to join.
You don’t need social media because we’re doing it all with Zoom!
At our hour-long Virtual Book Club meeting, we will heavily discuss this month’s book using the questions given below the review as a guide.
HERE IS THE ZOOM LINK FOR THIS MONTH’S VIRTUAL BOOK CLUB: Thursday December 18, 2025 at 7 PM MST
If you loved the movie/book Chocolat, you’re going to enjoy this month’s Prairie Wife Virtual Book Club pick, Vianne! It takes place 6 years before Chocolat and I think it’s the perfect book for the end of the year. Here’s what the publisher had to say:
Secrets. Chocolate. A touch of magic.
On the evening of July 4th, a young woman scatters her mother’s ashes in New York and follows the call of the changing winds to the French coastal city of Marseille.
For the first time in her life, Vianne feels in control of her future. Charming her way into a job as a waitress, she tries to fit in, make friends, and come to terms with her pregnancy, knowing that by the time her child is born, the turning wind will have changed once again.
As she discovers the joy of cooking for the very first time, making local recipes her own with the addition of bittersweet chocolate spices, she learns that this humble magic has the power to unlock secrets.
And yet her gift comes at a price. And Vianne has a secret of her own; a secret that threatens everything…
