Fort Lawn Community Book Club

Curious to see what the current book club read is? August’s book for the Fort Lawn Community Center’s Book Club is “The Last List of Miss Judith Kratt” by Andrea Bobotis. There will be no meeting in July! Next Meeting: August 15, 2023 at 10:30 a.m. Summary: Some bury their secrets close to home. Others scatter them to the wind and hope they land somewhere far away. Judith Kratt inherited all the Kratt family had to offer—the pie safe, the copper clock, the murder no one talks about. She knows it’s high time to make an inventory of her household and its valuables, but she finds that cataloging the family belongings—as well as their misfortunes—won’t contain her family’s secrets, not when her wayward sister suddenly returns, determined to expose skeletons the Kratts had hoped to take to their graves. Interweaving the present with chilling flashbacks from one fateful evening in 1929, Judith pieces together the influence of her family on their small South Carolina cotton town, learning that the devastating effects of dark family secrets can last a lifetime and beyond. If you are interested in joining the Fort Lawn Community Center’s Book Club, please call 803-377-8145 for more information.
