June Book Club Meet Up - The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett

June Book Club Meet Up - The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett

Sun, Jun 21, 5:00 PM
From Boozy Bronx Book Club
4.9

**📚 June Meetup — Black Authors / Diaspora Fiction** **Hey Book Friends!** June is all about powerful storytelling from across the African diaspora and we chose a book that is deeply engaging, emotional, and perfect for a layered discussion. 📖 **This Month’s Theme** Black Authors / Diaspora Fiction 📘 **Book Pick** ***The Vanishing Half* by Brit Bennett** This bestselling novel follows twin sisters who grow up together but ultimately choose very different lives, leading them down paths that intersect with questions of identity, race, belonging, and reinvention. Spanning decades and generations, the story explores what we carry with us, what we leave behind, and how our choices ripple through family and time. It’s beautifully written, emotionally sharp, and incredibly thought-provoking without feeling heavy. Expect a mix of character-driven moments, big themes, and plenty of “let’s talk about that” discussion points. No spoilers, just come ready to reflect and share perspectives. 📅 **Date & Time** Sunday, June 21, 2026 at 1 PM 📍 **Location** Bronx Alehouse Pull up, grab a drink, and settle in. This is one of those books where everyone walks away with a different take, and that’s what makes the conversation so good.
