January Book Club: Katie Tietjen
As always our book club meetings are open to all. During the winter months, we meet exclusively on zoom. Simply message us on facebook or email me at store (at) auntagathas.com for a zoom link. In October, we’ll meet on the 20th at 2 p.m. to discuss Michael Bennett‘s debut novel, Better the Blood, featuring a Māori detective. This is a strong start to a new series. In November, we are delighted to welcome author Vanessa Lillie on Sunday, November 17 at 2 p.m. She’ll discuss her wonderful novel, Blood Sisters, which I very much hope is a series kick off. We take December off and in January we are lucky enough to have new author Katie Tietjen join us on Sunday the 19th at 2 p.m. Katie will discuss her first novel, Death in the Details. The book is loosely based on the work of Frances Glassner Lee who created crime scene “nutshells” (miniature rooms, basically) and revolutionized the way crime scenes are processed and investigated. As Katie is a novelist, however, she brings the reader her own fascinating story. This is a terrific debut novel, one of my favorites of this year.
