Description

Meet Ashley Audrain, a repeat Book of the Month author! We sit down with Ashley to discuss her new book, The Whispers, how wealth impacts motherhood, and why people in the suburbs are not okay. We also play a challenging round of ‘Would You Rather: Kid’s Party or Adult Party.’   On Harlow Street, everything is fabulous until Whitney’s son falls from his bedside window in the middle of the night. The Whispers spins out over the course of one week, in the alternating voices of the women in the neighborhood: Blair, Whitney’s best friend; Rebecca, the ER doctor helping Whitney’s son; and Mara, the older woman next door. The Whispers explores the quiet sacrifices of motherhood and the dangerous impulse to compare oneself to other parents.    Get The Whispers at bookofthemonth.com. New members get their first book for just $9.99 with code VBT at checkout.    Learn more about Virtual Book Tour at virtualbooktour.com

Since we've never been ones to keep interesting new books to ourselves, we're kicking off a series of conversations with Book of the Month authors about God only knows what. Recorded at Book of the Month headquarters on West 27th St. in front of a live audience of raucous employees! Give us your ears and we'll give you a look into the minds of writers we admire and a treasure trove of anecdotes, wisdom, and fun. Suggestions or ideas? Email us at virtualbooktour@bookofthemonth.com
