Title:Crimes Against a Book Club
Author:Kathy Cooperman
Published:May 2017, Lake Union Publishing
Format:Paperback, 320 pages
Best friends Annie and
Sarah need cash—fast. Sarah, a beautiful, successful lawyer, wants
nothing more than to have a baby. But balancing IVF treatments with a
grueling eighty-hour workweek is no walk in the park. Meanwhile, Annie, a
Harvard-grad chemist recently transplanted to Southern California, is
cutting coupons to afford her young autistic son’s expensive therapy.Desperate,
the two friends come up with a brilliant plan: they’ll combine Sarah’s
looks and Annie’s brains to sell a “luxury” antiaging face cream to the
wealthy, fading beauties in Annie’s La Jolla book club. The scheme seems
innocent enough, until Annie decides to add a special—and
oh-so-illegal—ingredient that could bring their whole operation crashing
to the ground.Hilarious, intelligent, and warm, Crimes Against a Book Club is a delightful look at the lengths women will go to fend for their families and for one another.

“Cooperman’s debut is a light, engrossing novel with two bold protagonists that won’t quickly be forgotten.”—Publishers Weekly
“Cooperman
is at her best when she focuses on the friendship between Annie and
Sarah—their bond is genuinely touching, and their struggles are easy to
relate to… A funny story about what two women will do to make a quick
buck.”—Kirkus
“Funny, heartwarming and a little left of center, Crimes Against a Book Club is a story about real life struggles tackled in an unconventional manner.” —Long and Short Reviews
