To celebrate the holidays, we\u2019ve selected a fun historical novel featuring Jane Austen, espionage, romance, and plenty of mischief.<\/p>\n
Our next book club pick is here, and we\u2019re excited to share it with you! For November 2020, The Silver Petticoat Book Club has chosen a light and heartwarming read that will give you all the cozy feelings. So, heat up some hot chocolate, grab a blanket, and settle down by the fireplace with this charming festive novel.<\/p>\n
For those of you new to the book club, we alternate between choosing newer books and classic books each month. This means one month we\u2019ll pick a more contemporary book (published after 2000, with a preference for recent publications), and the next month we\u2019ll pick a classic book (published before 2000). This month\u2019s pick is a contemporary book.<\/p>\n
THE SILVER PETTICOAT BOOK CLUB REVEAL (YOUR NOVEMBER 2020 READ!)<\/p>\n
The Silver Petticoat Book Club pick for November is The Mischief of the Mistletoe: A Pink Carnation Christmas, a historical romance perfect for the holidays!<\/p>\n
Have you ever read a book that made you laugh out loud? This entertaining historical romance will leave a smile on your face. Sometimes, you need a book that’s pure escapism! Inspired by Jane Austen\u2019s unfinished novel, The Watsons, Jane is even a secondary character in this whimsical Pink Carnation novel. Jane Austen thinks Arabella\u2019s story would make a fantastic novel after all.<\/p>\n
Arabella Dempsey was supposed to be an heiress until her wealthy aunt fell in love and sent poor Arabella back home to Bath without prospects. Since she isn\u2019t married, Arabella decides to become a teacher, an occupation Jane Austen herself warns her against.<\/p>\n
Soon, Arabella meets the bumbling but sweet and lovable Turnip Fitzhugh. Everyone thinks he\u2019s the spy known as the Pink Carnation because he bumbles around so adorably. Arabella and Turnip are quickly thrown together to solve a mystery involving a Christmas pudding and a mysterious message.<\/p>\n
Adventure, mishaps, romance, and laughter follow in this delightful holiday novel. There are several books in the Pink Carnation series, but don\u2019t worry\u2014you can jump in because the story stands on its own. I\u2019ve read just the first book before this one, and it was equally charming and hilarious. The Mischief of the Mistletoe is a captivating novel anyone can enjoy. You don\u2019t have to celebrate Christmas to appreciate this fabulous story; it\u2019s more about the festive setting. Lauren Willig\u2019s writing will draw you in and sweep you off your feet!<\/p>\n
In summary, there’s comedy, mystery, and an intriguing romantic hero for all the Bingley fans out there. Prepare to swoon, laugh, and escape for a few hours of pure bliss!<\/p>\n
BOOK SYNOPSIS OF THE MISCHIEF OF THE MISTLETOE: A PINK CARNATION CHRISTMAS<\/p>\n
Despite her friend Jane Austen\u2019s warning against teaching, Arabella Dempsey takes a job at a girls\u2019 school in Bath just before Christmas. She never imagines encountering French aristocrats and international spies.<\/p>\n
Reginald \u201cTurnip\u201d Fitzhugh, often mistaken for the elusive spy known as the Pink Carnation, has stumbled into danger before. When Turnip and Arabella discover their Christmas pudding holds a cryptic message, they embark on a Yuletide adventure. Will they find poinsettias\u2014or peril?<\/p>\n
