Want to discuss great books with like-minded friends in Phoenix?

The concept is simple. We’re a global book club for likeminded women to discuss great books! All members of the book club read the same book over the same period; members then meet up in their respective cities at the end of each month to discuss the book and exchange views.

Join Phoenix's Facebook Group to stay up to date. Join HERE

About the book

Someday, Maybe by Onyi Nwabineli

A stunning and witty debut novel about a young woman’s emotional journey through unimaginable loss, pulled along by her tight-knit Nigerian family, a posse of new friends, and the love and laughter she shared with her husband. Onyi Nwabineli is a fresh new voice for fans of Yaa Gyasi, Queenie and I May Destroy You.

Here are three things you should know about my husband:
1. He was the great love of my life despite his penchant for going incommunicado.
2. He was, as far as I and everyone else could tell, perfectly happy. Which is significant because…
3. On New Year’s Eve, he committed suicide.

And here is one thing you should know about me:
1. I found him.

Bonus fact: No. I am not okay.

    Hello!

    I’m Issam Rian, literary representative for author D.R. Ransdell. I noticed that you have a book club focused on diverse genres; maybe one of D.R.’s books below would be of interest for a future choice.

    A brief summary of D.R.’s books:

    MYSTERIES (some violence, hints of sex, but humorous and light-hearted)

    The Andy Veracruz Mysteries feature mariachi violinist Andy Veracruz. Since mariachi players don’t perform using written music, they have more time to observe their customers—and their customers’ antics. For Andy, this is an annoying distraction!

    Mariachi Meddler—when Andy Veracruz takes charge of the restaurant so his boss can attend a baptism, Andy never expects the boss’s wife to become a murder suspect.

    Island Casualty—Andy goes to Greece for a much-needed vacation, but a fellow traveler’s disappearance sends bullets flying.

    Dizzy in Durango—Andy travels to Durango, Mexico, to chase after Rachel, but they both chase after a kidnapped teacher whose choice of boyfriends proves fatal.

    Substitute Soloist—Andy accepts a position with an orchestra, but during the first concert, the concertmaster goes missing after the manager is killed backstage.

    Brotherly Love—Andy helps Rachel stage a show in Vegas, but between a scheming stage manager and terrible musicians, Andy fears that opening night also be their last.

    UPCOMING MYSTERY, available September 2022: Party Wine—Sofi travels to Italy to restore a family property, but after a victim is found in her cellar, renovations take a backseat to investigations—and her interest in a local police officer.

    WOMEN’S FICTION (light, humorous, hints of sex)

    The Campanello Travel Novels feature Rachel and/or Gina Campanello, two sisters who develop a love of travel—and sometimes fellow travelers.

    Amirosian Nights—when Rachel Campanello travels to Greece for the summer, she never expects to substitute in a mariachi band or fall for the island’s star musician.

    Thai Twist—when Gina travels to Thailand, her mission to deliver a package to a long-lost friend leads her all over the country and into the arms of one of its natives.

    Carillon Chase—after winning an internship with a travel company, Gina drives to Springfield, Illinois, to cover the International Carillon Festival, but she has to rescue the star performer from jealous rivals.

    NON-FICTION

    Secrets of a Mariachi Violinist—D.R. explains her musical journey from studying traditional classical music to learning folk songs in Mexico to talking her way into a mariachi band in Tucson, Arizona.

    D.R. lives in Tucson during the school year, but she would be happy to zoom in for part of a meeting. If you’re interested in one of her books, I would be pleased to provide you with a complimentary copy; if your book club adopts one of her books, I can send three. Many thanks for your kind attention. I look forward to hearing from you. In the meantime, happy reading!

    Sincerely,

    Issam Rian
