Fairy Tales

[close] Fairy tales exist, or at least they used to. A hundred years ago, human researchers traced ancient artifacts to a small island off the coast of Ireland and there they found a secret portal to Aediryn, the realm of magic. Humans being the meddling beasts that they are, sought to conquer the new world and capture its magic for themselves. Those who could afford to pay for safe passage for themselves and their children found a new start in our world, and as such, these "fairy tales" became fact. Those who remain from the old world live in secret, fearful that their discovery would lead to more violence and destruction.

[close] This fall join with others to talk about the characters, ideas, and images brought to life in the debut novel by author Annie Russell. The Changeling: A New Orleans Faerie Tale is a decadent descent into the realm of Fae, the magic of the French Quarter, and the power of friendship. ~Feel free to join now! Discussion will begin mid November of 2020.~

[close] Every season (Fall, Winter, Spring, Summer), Amber and Autumn – twin sisters behind The Silver Petticoat Review and The Silver Petticoat Book Club - select six book recommendations. A book club focused on choosing books with love stories (it does not need to be a romance) or books with Romanticism. Think sweet, smart, imaginative, or Austenesque in style. From classics to debut authors, bestsellers, personal nostalgic favorites, and more. Amber and Autumn have made it their mission to select books that inspire or excite them – books that ignite a love of reading, whether it’s a fun, sensationalist read or a literary novel that explores themes of humanity. All selected book club books range between one and three out of five on the steaminess scale and do not have tons of gore, profanity, or explicit content. Some novels may include a little bit of graphic text, profanity, or violence; however, it will not be throughout the book, and Amber and Autumn will give a content warning. The discussion is simple. At some time during the current season, Amber and Autumn will ask members on Facebook, Goodreads, and Instagram about each of the books. They’ll ask members if they’ve read the book and what they thought. You can join in at any time to share your thoughts. You can also follow the hashtag: #TheSilverPetticoatBookClub. Also, please use the hashtag to show how you’re participating. And remember to invite your friends to join.
