Digital Book Club: June 2026

This month’s Digital Book Club title is Brigands & Breadknives by Travis Baldree.

Fern has weathered the stillness and storms of a bookseller’s life for decades, but now, in the face of crippling ennui, transplants herself to the city of Thune to hang out her shingle beside a long-absent friend’s coffee shop.

What could be a better pairing? Surely a charming renovation montage will cure what ails her!

If only things were so simple...

Brigands & Breadknives is available on BorrowBox as an eBook and eAudiobook with no waiting.
