Prairie Wife Virtual Book Club: March 2025

Posted March 5, 2025 by Prairie Wife -

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

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: TUESDAY, March 25, 2025 7 PM MST

Rabbit: A Memoir by Patricia Williams

“Rabbit” has been on my wish list for several months now, and I can’t wait to discuss it with all of you. I have no doubt we’re going to have some interesting conversations about this one!

Here’s what the publisher had to say:

They called her Rabbit.

Patricia Williams (aka Ms. Pat) was born and raised in Atlanta at the height of the crack epidemic. One of five children, Pat watched as her mother struggled to get by on charity, cons, and petty crimes. At age seven, Pat was taught to roll drunks for money. At twelve, she was targeted for sex by a man eight years her senior. By thirteen, she was pregnant. By fifteen, Pat was a mother of two.

Alone at sixteen, Pat was determined to make a better life for her children. But with no job skills and an eighth-grade education, her options were limited. She learned quickly that hustling and humor were the only tools she had to survive. Rabbit is an unflinching memoir of cinematic scope and unexpected humor. With wisdom and humor, Pat gives us a rare glimpse of what it’s really like to be a black mom in America.
