Winter 2025 Reading Club- Yours Truly
We are happy to announce in partnership with CoffeeTree Books and the Rowan County Public Library, the Mayor’s Book Club is here with a Winter Read! The book, our Mayor selected is “Yours Truly” by Abby Jimenez.
Description:
A novel of terrible first impressions, hilarious second chances, and the joy in finding your perfect match from “a true talent” (Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author).
Dr. Briana Ortiz’s life is seriously flatlining. Her divorce is just about finalized, her brother’s running out of time to find a kidney donor, and that promotion she wants? Oh, that’s probably going to the new man-doctor who’s already registering eighty-friggin’-seven on Briana’s “pain in my ass” scale. But just when all systems are set to hate, Dr. Jacob Maddox completely flips the game . . . by sending Briana a letter.And it’s a really good letter. Like the kind that proves that Jacob isn’t actually Satan. Worse, he might be this fantastically funny and subversively likeable guy who’s terrible at first impressions. Because suddenly he and Bri are exchanging letters, sharing lunch dates in her “sob closet,” and discussing the merits of freakishly tiny horses. But when Jacob decides to give Briana the best gift imaginable–a kidney for her brother–she wonders just how she can resist this quietly sexy new doctor . . . especially when he calls in a favor she can’t refuse.
Thanks to our partners CoffeeTree Books and Rowan County Public Library.
