January 2026 BFBC Book Pick

BEFORE I FORGET

by TORY HENWOOD HOEN

Happy New Year! Your @bookfriendsbookclub hosts @mommaleighellensbooknook & @bigskybooks are so excited to announce our first pick of 2026! So many of us are reflecting on 2025 and deciding what to bring into the new year and what to leave behind. So we thought a hopeful and reflective story would be a great one to start off with.
