Summer Book Club
Weyward by Emilia Hart
Come and join us for our summer book club!
This year we will be reading Weyward by Emilia Hart. Weyward by Emilia Hart is a historical fiction novel that weaves together the stories of three women from the same family across different centuries (1619, 1942, and 2019) who discover a shared legacy of female power and natural magic, often labeled as witchcraft, as they each confront abuse and societal constraints. The novel explores themes of female resilience, family secrets, and the historical persecution of women, all connected by a mysterious cottage named Weyward.
