It’s time to announce our book for the Prairie Wife Virtual Book Club: January 2025

This monthly Virtual Book Club is all thanks to Wind City Books, an Indie Bookstore in Downtown Casper, Wyoming.

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 MONTHS VIRTUAL BOOK CLUB: TUESDAY JANUARY 28, 2025 7 PM MST

Rock Paper Scissors by Alice Feeney

Alice Feeney’s book “Sometimes I Lie” is one of the best thrillers I have ever read! So when our book club attendees asked to kick off 2025 with a suspenseful thriller, and Miranda suggested the newest Alice Feeney book…I said YES!

Here’s what the publisher had to say:

Things have been wrong with Mr and Mrs Wright for a long time. When Adam and Amelia win a weekend away to Scotland, it might be just what their marriage needs. Self-confessed workaholic and screenwriter Adam Wright has lived with face blindness his whole life. He can’t recognize friends or family, or even his own wife.

Every anniversary the couple exchange traditional gifts–paper, cotton, pottery, tin–and each year Adam’s wife writes him a letter that she never lets him read. Until now. They both know this weekend will make or break their marriage, but they didn’t randomly win this trip. One of them is lying, and someone doesn’t want them to live happily ever after.

Ten years of marriage. Ten years of secrets. And an anniversary they will never forget.
