  Featured book:The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek

  by Kim Michele Richardson

  The bestselling historical fiction novel from Kim Michele Richardson, this is a novel following Cussy Mary, a packhorse librarian and her quest to bring books to the Appalachian community she loves, perfect for readers of William Kent Kreuger and Lisa Wingate. The perfect addition to your next book club!

  The hardscrabble folks of Troublesome Creek have to scrap for everything—everything except books, that is. Thanks to Roosevelt's Kentucky Pack Horse Library Project, Troublesome's got its very own traveling librarian, Cussy Mary Carter.

  Cussy's not only a book woman, however, she's also the last of her kind, her skin a shade of blue unlike most anyone else. Not everyone is keen on Cussy's family or the Library Project, and a Blue is often blamed for any whiff of trouble. If Cussy wants to bring the joy of books to the hill folks, she's going to have to confront prejudice as old as the Appalachias and suspicion as deep as the holler.

  Inspired by the true blue-skinned people of Kentucky and the brave and dedicated Kentucky Pack Horse library service of the 1930s, The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek is a story of raw courage, fierce strength, and one woman's belief that books can carry us anywhere—even back home.

  Featured book: The Lincoln Highway by Amor Towles

  In June, 1954, eighteen-year-old Emmett Watson is driven home to Nebraska by the warden of the juvenile work farm where he has just served fifteen months for involuntary manslaughter. His mother long gone, his father recently deceased, and the family farm foreclosed upon by the bank, Emmett's intention is to pick up his eight-year-old brother, Billy, and head to California where they can start their lives anew. But when the warden drives away, Emmett discovers that two friends from the work farm have hidden themselves in the trunk of the warden's car. Together, they have hatched an altogether different plan for Emmett's future, one that will take them all on a fateful journey in the opposite direction—to the City of New York.
  
  Spanning just ten days and told from multiple points of view, Towles's third novel will satisfy fans of his multi-layered literary styling while providing them an array of new and richly imagined settings, characters, and themes.

  TOGETHER WE RISE

  An In‑Person Gathering

  of Crone Awakening Wisdom

  September 10–13, 2026 |Highlands, North Carolina

  
  

  Join Us in the Sacred Mountains

  Join Crone Awakening Wisdom in the breathtaking Blue Ridge Mountains for Together We Rise, an in‑person gathering devoted to wisdom, story, sisterhood, and embodied joy. Held at The Mountain Retreat & Learning Center in Highlands, NC, this gathering invites you to slow down, listen deeply, and rise together in community.

  Perched on a 4,200‑foot granite cliff on the Eastern Continental Divide, The Mountain offers sweeping, soul‑stirring views, ancient 400‑year‑old dwarf white oak trees, and a natural sanctuary that holds us as we reflect, celebrate, and transform.

  What We’ll Share Together

  Over four nourishing days, we gather as elders, seekers, storytellers, and sisters.

  ✨ Sacred circles & breakout groups
  ✨ Storytelling & Elder Ceremony
  ✨ Workshops offered by and for our community
  ✨ Drumming, singing, dancing, and creative expression
  ✨ Talent show & playful celebration
  ✨ Spacious time for rest, reflection, and nature connection

  Come to teach, to learn, to witness, or simply to be. Every voice matters. Every story is welcome.

  A Place That Holds Us

  Surrounded by forests, sky, and stone, this sacred land supports deep listening and genuine connection. Walking paths, quiet spaces, and expansive vistas invite contemplation, while shared gathering spaces foster warmth, laughter, and belonging.

  Featured book: These Truths by Jill Lepore

  A reflection on history and the shaping of a nation

  In These Truths, Jill Lepore invites us into a sweeping exploration of the American story — not just the events that shaped the nation, but the deeper questions underneath them. Through history, journalism, politics, and the voices of both celebrated and overlooked people, she examines the ongoing tension between the ideals America was founded upon and the realities people have lived.

  This is not simply a history book filled with dates and facts. It is an inquiry into truth itself: How do we know what is true? What happens when truth becomes distorted? And how do we, as citizens and human beings, participate in shaping the future through understanding the past?

  Lepore reminds us that America has always been a land of contradictions — built from both courage and conquest, freedom and oppression, hope and division. Yet she also suggests that the willingness to honestly engage with those contradictions is part of the work of democracy and community.

  For our circle, this optional September reading offers an opportunity to reflect together on inheritance, responsibility, and the stories that shape collective identity. Rather than seeking one “correct” interpretation, we approach this book with curiosity, compassion, and a willingness to listen deeply to history and to one another.

  We are excited to offer the opportunity for members to join and experience being  a member of a Wisdom Circle.  The Circle is not a Course or class but an on-going "open topic" discussion group. 

  The purpose is to connect with other women, build your self-awareness, find support and learn from the wisdom of the group.

  It is a chance to tell our stories, and to practice deep listening. 

  The Circle meets that same time each month. If you miss or can't make it, come back next time. 

  Register soon to hold a space.

  Featured book: Tom Lake by Ann Patchett
  

  Tom Lake — Ann Patchett
  Memory, reflection, and meaning in a life lived

  In Tom Lake, Ann Patchett offers a tender and deeply human story about family, memory, love, and the many selves we become throughout a lifetime. Set during the quiet uncertainty of 2020, three daughters return home to their family orchard and begin asking their mother about a chapter of her younger life — a season filled with theater, possibility, and a meaningful romance.

  As the story unfolds, the daughters begin to see their mother not only as “Mom,” but as a woman who carried dreams, desires, choices, and experiences long before they were born. In turn, they are invited to reflect on their own lives, relationships, and assumptions about love, happiness, and what truly matters.

  This novel gently explores the beauty and complexity of ordinary life — youthful love, enduring partnership, family bonds, and the stories we carry within us. It reminds us that even in uncertain times, moments of connection, reflection, and shared memory can bring meaning and grace.

  For our circle, Tom Lake offers an opportunity to contemplate the layers of identity we hold across a lifetime and the quiet wisdom that emerges when we look back with honesty, compassion, and perspective.

  Featured book: Anxious People by Fredrik Backman
  

  Anxious People — Fredrik Backman
  Humor, humanity, and shared imperfection

  What begins as an ordinary apartment open house quickly turns into something completely unexpected when a desperate bank robber takes a group of strangers hostage. Trapped together are people who seem very different on the surface — a struggling couple, expectant parents, a lonely elder, a driven businesswoman, a real estate agent trying to hold everything together, and others each carrying private worries, disappointments, and longings.

  As the hours unfold, the masks people wear begin to fall away. Hidden griefs, fears, regrets, and tenderness slowly emerge, revealing that none of them are quite who they first appeared to be. Even the bank robber is not simply a villain, but another human being searching for relief, connection, and hope.

  With humor and deep compassion, Anxious People explores the beautifully messy reality of being human. It reminds us how often people are carrying invisible burdens, doing the best they can while longing to be understood. Through unexpected friendships and moments of honesty, the story gently points toward forgiveness, grace, and the healing power of connection.

  For our circle, this novel offers both laughter and reflection as we explore imperfection, shared humanity, and the ways we sometimes rescue one another without even realizing it.

  Featured book: Still Life by Sarah Winman

  Connection, beauty, and integration of a full year

  Still Life is a sweeping, tender story about the unexpected ways lives become intertwined through love, loss, friendship, and art. Set against the backdrop of wartime Italy and post-war London, it follows a young soldier whose chance encounter with an art historian in a Tuscan cellar during World War II quietly changes the course of his life.

  In the midst of destruction, something enduring is formed — a connection that carries forward through decades, shaping who he becomes and how he understands belonging. Back in London, life continues in a circle of friends and chosen family, full of eccentricity, humor, and everyday beauty, even as memories of Italy remain alive within him.

  When the past calls him back to Tuscany years later, he is invited to reconnect with the places, people, and moments that first opened his heart to a different way of seeing the world.

  For our circle, Still Life offers a reflection on how love, art, and friendship shape us across time. It is a reminder that even in times of upheaval, beauty persists — and that the connections we form can become the quiet foundation of a life fully lived.
