SUMMARY:Whitelam Books to Host Author Kristin Bair at Monthly Fiction Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Reading\, MA – Whitelam Books is excited to welcome author Kristin Bair to our fiction book club on Thursday\, February 19 at 7:00pm. Our monthly drop-in fiction book club will be discussing Kristin’s book\, Clementine Crane Prefers Not To. Whitelam Books is located in downtown Reading at 610 Main Street\, near the intersection of Haven Street and Main Street. \nThis event is free and open to the public – all are welcome! \nAbout the Event: \nJoin us for a special fiction book club meeting as we host author Kristin Bair and discuss her book\, Clementine Crane Prefers Not To. Clementine Crane has a few things on her plate: She keeps the peace\, picks up the slack\, and always puts everyone else first. But when her first hot flash strikes\, perimenopause sends her into a tailspin. Between a husband who can’t navigate a revolving door without her\, three kids who treat her as their fixer\, and a career stuck in neutral\, Clementine begins to wonder: When is enough enough? \nOverwhelmed and fed up\, Clementine takes a stand—one small refusal at a time. She goes on strike\, ditching obligations\, setting boundaries\, and venting her frustrations on social media. When her raw\, hilarious\, and unexpectedly poignant videos go viral\, Clementine finds herself at the heart of a movement she never saw coming. \nClementine can’t stay on strike forever\, but can she let a few things fall through the cracks—before she cracks again? Speaking to the emotional\, and often invisible\, labor that so many women bear\, Clementine Crane finally asks: When does it become too much?
