February’s Read

“Eight Hundred Grapes” by Laura Dave (purchase a copy here.)

Synopsis

Eight Hundred GrapesΒ is a story about the messy realities of family, the strength (and weaknesses) of romantic love, and the importance of finding a place to call home. β€œThis winning tale will both satisfy on a literary level and encourage oenophiles to pour themselves a glass of a recent vintage to enjoy while reading; it’s a tasty treat for wine lovers and teetotalers alike” (Publishers Weekly). You won’t be able to put this β€œaddictive” (Us Weekly) novel down.

Georgia Ford, bride-to-be, hops in her car and drives through the night, from Los Angeles to Sonoma, to her safe haven: her family, and the acclaimed family winery. Georgia craves the company of those who know her best, and whom she trulyΒ knows. Better yet, it’s the eve of the last harvestβ€”the best time of the growing season, and Georgia knows she’ll find solaceβ€”and distractionβ€”in the familiar rituals. But when Georgia arrives home, nothing is at all familiar. Her parents, her brothers, the family business, are all unrecognizable. It seems her fiancΓ© isn’t the only one who’s been keeping secrets…

Heralded as β€œimpossible to put down” (Elle), and named a Best Book of the Summer byΒ Glamour,Β Good Housekeeping,Β Cosmopolitan,Β Elle,Β Marie Claire, andΒ Us Weekly,Β Eight Hundred GrapesΒ is a heartbreaking, funny, and deeply evocative novel about love, marriage, family, wine, and the treacherous terrain in which they all intersect.
