This book club welcomes everyone who identifies as a Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) woman in Orlando, FL.

Please join us for our discussion of this month's book selection: The Authenticity Project by Clare Pooley
"The Authenticity Project by Clare Pooley is a heartwarming novel about a lonely artist who starts a chain of honesty by leaving a green notebook in a café, prompting strangers to write their truths and ultimately connecting them in real life, leading to unexpected friendships and love. The story follows several characters, including the artist Julian, the café owner Monica, and others who find the notebook, as they share their deepest secrets and find connection through radical honesty. It's a story about vulnerability, connection, and the idea that no one's life is as perfect as it seems."
