Cheryl asked Brunonia Barry:

Hello!! I just received The Fifth Petal on NetGalley. Should I read The Lace Reader and The Map Of True Places first? I have a book club. We just did our first Skype session with author Tiffany McDaniel, we absolutely loved it! I would love to set a Skype date with you and my book club. We meet on the last Friday of each month at 6:30 pm. My email is tc3von@gmail.com. If we set this up, which book should we read?

Brunonia Barry Hi Cheryl, The Fifth Petal is a standalone book, so there's no need to read the other two first. There are some recurring characters, which is probably why people are referring to it as a sequel. But the protagonist and the story are both new. I'd love to do a Skype session with your book club. I'll be on tour until Mid-February, but after that I'll be more available. Let me know what dates you're considering, and we'll schedule it.
