Please join us for our monthly book club meeting at No Shelf Control.
Because October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month I have chosen the book Adrift by Will Dean. I will be placing an order for the books on September 25, 2026 so if you want one please message me with your email and I will send you and invoice so I can order. Hardcover for $22 + tax.
Synopsis: Peggy and Drew, both aspiring writers, move to an isolated canal boat with their fourteen-year-old son. Peggy is the glue that holds their family together, even as their son is bullied relentlessly for his physique and his family’s lack of money. But when Drew becomes frustrated by his wife’s sudden writing success, he moves their boat further and further from civilization.
With their increasing isolation, personal challenges become harder to ignore, even as they desperately try to break toxic generational patterns. But when Drew’s gaslighting becomes too much for Peggy to take, it sets off a catastrophic series of events.
With Will Dean’s signature “well-drawn characters and excellent prose” (Sarah Pearse, New York Times bestselling author), Adrift is gripping exploration of the ties that bind when everything spirals out of control.
