The Reading Room Book Club | March

You do not have to finish or even read the book picked for this month, it is simply a conversation starter. Our discussion topics will go beyond the book and include various themes and interests. The meet up, inspired by the Insight society book club, is more about connecting, sharing our thoughts and ideas and enjoying some good company, than analysing the book. This will be a relaxed social evening with fellow book lovers.

📚 Book of the month 📚:

Counterfeit by Kirstin Chen.

Ava Wong is a rule-abiding, stay-at-home mother whose picture-perfect life is rapidly unraveling under the pressure of a strained marriage and a chaotic toddler. Her life takes a dramatic turn when her former college roommate, the once-shy Winnie Fang, reappears after twenty years, now wealthy and dripping in luxury goods. Winnie soon reveals her secret: an ingenious, high-stakes counterfeit handbag scheme and she needs a partner with a U.S. passport to help run the operation.

Desperate to escape her mundane existence, Ava is pulled into a thrilling, stylish underworld of luxury, deceit, and international travel. What begins as a few small favors quickly escalates into a massive, dangerous criminal enterprise that forces Ava to confront her own desires and the consequences of her actions. Counterfeit is a fast-paced, sharp, and witty caper that explores friendship, ambition, and the lies we tell to create the perfect life.
