Read along with us this month! In August we wanted to read a book with a tie to Chicago, and we selected WHEN FRANNY STANDS UP by Eden Robins.

Synopsis:

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel meets A League of Their Own in this inspiring story Buzzfeed calls "a warm hug of a novel."

Franny Steinberg knows there's powerful magic in laughter. She's witnessed it. With the men of Chicago off fighting WWII on distant shores, Franny has watched the women of the city taking charge of the war effort. But amidst the war bond sales and factory shifts, something surprising has emerged, something Franny could never have expected.

If you would like to attend the meeting, please contact us and we will send you the address.
