Don’t miss the BWG Library's Virtual Book Club, where we chat about great titles with other readers! New members are welcome to join our discussion. The Book Club meets on the Zoom platform on the last Wednesday of each month at 7:00 p.m.
The title for the September meeting, which will be held on Wednesday, September 29, is The Scent Keeper by Erica Bauermeister.
Erica Bauermeister presents a moving and evocative novel about childhood stories, families lost and found, and how a fragrance conjures memories capable of shaping the course of our lives.
Emmeline lives on a remote island with her father, who teaches her about the natural world through her senses. What he won't explain are the mysterious scents stored in glass bottles that line the walls of their cabin, or the origin of the machine that creates them. As Emmeline grows, however, so too does her curiosity, until one day the unforeseen happens, and Emmeline is vaulted out into the real world -- a place of love, betrayal, ambition, and revenge. To understand her past, Emmeline must unlock the clues to her identity, a quest that challenges the limits of her heart and imagination.
Captivating and emotional, The Scent Keeper explores the provocative beauty of scent, the way it can reveal hidden truths, lead us to the person we seek, and even help us find our way back home.”
