About this Event

Join for our Beach Read month this August.

Malibu Rising (Taylor Jenkins Reid, 2021)

A lifetime holding it together.
One party will bring it crashing down.
Malibu: August, 1983. It's the day of Nina Riva's annual end-of-summer party, and anticipation is at a fever pitch. Everyone wants to be around the famous Rivas: Nina, the talented surfer and supermodel; brothers Jay and Hud, one a championship surfer, the other a renowned photographer; and their adored baby sister, Kit. Together, the siblings are a source of fascination in Malibu and the world over-especially as the offspring of the legendary singer, Mick Riva.
By midnight the party will be completely out of control.
By morning, the Riva mansion will have gone up in flames.
But before that first spark in the early hours before dawn, the alcohol will flow, the music will play, and the loves and secrets that shaped this family's generations will all come bubbling to the surface.


Who we are

The Valkyrie Book Society is a space for women who love good books and great company.

We care about what we read and how we connect. Our community is a place of strength and warmth where women can be completely themselves (and we never take ourselves too seriously).

We’re here for the hot takes, the eye rolls, the laughs, the tears, the raised eyebrows and the stories that stay with you.

More than a book club. The Valkyrie Book Society 😊
