My book club is going to read Radium Girls for our May meeting. on zoom. Am wondering if you ever join book club meetings on zoom. Also I see you have two books called Radium Girls--Im wondering which one would be the best for our book club to read?
Kate Moore
Hi Sherry! Thanks so much for reaching out - and for choosing The Radium Girls for your book club. I do join book clubs when I can and love it! However, I am based in the UK, so depending on your location we may just need to figure out a mutually convenient time. It's probably best to schedule this via email, so please do message me at kate@kate-moore.com if you'd like to continue this chat.
As for which book to read, I think the two books you mean are 1/ the original edition and 2/ the young readers' edition (which has a different subtitle and an illustration not photograph on the jacket). I'd have thought the original edition would suit your group best, as the YR edition is aimed at 8-12 yr olds. The YR edition is about half the length and has a lot more photographs.
I hope you and your group find their story powerful. Thanks for reading.
All best wishes
Kate

Like many, I want to thank you for giving a voice to these women and their families. All because a rich man wanting to make himself richer. And the disregard for human life continued in Radium City! That poor town. My question: where do you get the most money when people buy your books in ebook form? I know stores take a portion of the sales and some stores take less than others. Thank you!

Dear Ms. Moore. I just read The Radium Girls. It was riveting and you are a genius author. Please tell me that Hollywood has approached you for permission to make a legitimate studio movie with a reputable director? - Fr. Mark J. Betti, Pastor, St. Brendan Catholic Church, Shallotte, NC
