Join the Book Club for an informal discussion of Lisa Wingate’s best-selling historical novel “Before We Were Yours” The story, based on the real-life scandal of Georgia Tann, director of an adoption organization, kidnapped and sold poor children to wealthy families all over the country. Wingate tells their story writing parallel tales --- one set in 1939 and one in the present day. In the ‘30s Rill Foss and her family are living on a Mississippi River shantyboat. In the modern-day story, Avery Stafford lives in South Carolina where she has grown up in a privileged world. Copies available to check out. Light refreshments.
