Join us with authors Claire Swinarski in conversation with Amy E. Reichert, for Swinarski’s new book, The Supper Club Saints, a dynamic, honest, and beautifully written novel about a young mother who returns to her small-town Wisconsin home after living in a cult-like "Mommune," and what happens with the other women in her family as they each navigate the constraints, complexities, and joys of modern motherhood. Book signing to follow. Please register for this free event. Both authors’ books are available from Books & Company! About the book: Cass Simon never expected to return to small-town Wisconsin; not after escaping life inside a cult-like “Mommune” and falling under the spell of an online mom-fluencer. But with nowhere left to turn, she finds herself back under her family’s roof, carrying more questions than answers about what it means to be a mother. Waiting for Cass is her own mother, Remy, the hardworking matriarch of the Baumhaus supper club. Remy’s love for her children is fierce but tangled with old grief and the fear of letting go, especially as she prepares to say goodbye to the family business that has anchored them for generations. Beside them stands Hilary, Cass’s older sister, an artist and devoted mother whose divorce has shaken her belief in herself; and Erin, a Simon by marriage, who is quietly battling heartbreak as she struggles to find gratitude for a pregnancy that both terrifies and redeems her. Each of the Simon women pursues her own vision of motherhood: Cass’s instinct for protection after trauma, Remy’s hope to be a harbor her daughters can always return to, and her sisters’ hard-won wisdom about letting go of perfection. Set against the backdrop of a vibrant, sometimes claustrophobic Wisconsin town, this dynamic and beautifully honest novel explores forgiveness, the bonds—and boundaries—of family, and the deeply personal journey of discovering what it truly means to be a “good mother”. About the authors: Claire Swinarski was born and raised in Wisconsin, where she still lives with her family and writes stories for readers of all ages. What Happens Next was her debut middle grade novel and was followed by The Kate in Between and What Happened to Rachel Riley, which was an ALA Notable Children’s Book, a YALSA Best Fiction for Young Adults title, a Cybils Award nominee, and an Edgar Award nominee. These were followed by Take It from the Top and Each and Every Spark. Claire believes wandering around a library can solve 95 percent of life’s problems. Amy E. Reichert is an author, wife, mom, Wisconsinite, amateur chef, and cider enthusiast. She earned her MA in English Literature and serves on her library's board of directors. She is a member of Tall Poppy Writers.

WooWoo Women is a gathering place for women who believe wellness is more than a routine, it’s a way of living. Rooted in holistic and integrated wellbeing (mind, body, spirit, home, work, relationships), we meet to reconnect with what’s true, what’s nourishing, and what’s next.   This collaborative is built on an ancient, evolutionary truth: when women share wisdom, communities rise. Across generations and cultures, fellowship has been a cornerstone of resilience, because we’re not meant to heal, build, or lead alone. Here, we practice the kind of connection that strengthens nervous systems, sparks clarity, and turns personal growth into collective momentum.   Each meeting features a speaker or experiential guide - a woman actively living our mission in the real world. Through stories, tools, and lived practices, she’ll share how she’s approaching integrated wellness and purposeful living in her work, family, leadership, creativity, and community. Expect meaningful conversation, grounded inspiration, and a supportive space to be seen and supported.   Come for the networking. Stay for the fellowship. Leave with wisdom you can actually use, and a community that helps you keep becoming.

Update: this event is SOLD OUT! Our Readings from Oconomowaukee event series is back with a double feature! Join us at the Oconomowoc Public Library at 1:00 p.m. for a conversation with author Caro Claire Burke about her debut novel, Yesteryear. A gripping, electrifying novel that is as darkly funny as it is frightening, Yesteryear is a gimlet-eyed look at tradition, fame, faith, and the grand performance of womanhood. Burke will be in conversation with Daniel Goldin, owner of Boswell Books, and Lisa Baudoin, owner of Books & Company. Please register for this free event at the Oconomowoc Public Library at 1:00pm. If you are unable to join us in the afternoon, don't miss the evening event at 6:30pm at the UWM Student Union - Ballroom B (2200 E Kenwood Blvd. Milwaukee, WI 53211)! See boswellbooks.com for more details and free registration.   About the book: A traditional American woman, a beautiful wife and mother who sells her pioneer lifestyle of raw milk and farm-fresh eggs to her millions of social media followers, suddenly awakens cold, filthy, and terrified in the brutal reality of 1855--where she must unravel whether this living nightmare is an elaborate hoax, a twisted reality show, or something far more sinister in this sensational debut novel.   My name was Natalie Heller Mills, and I was perfect at being alive. Natalie lives a traditional lifestyle. Her charming farmhouse is rustic, her husband a handsome cowboy, her six children each more delightful than the last. So what if there are nannies and producers behind the scenes, her kitchen hiding industrial-grade fridges and ovens, her husband the heir to a political dynasty? What Natalie's followers--all 8 million of them--don't know won't hurt them. And The Angry Women? The privileged, Ivy League, coastal elite haters who call her an antifeminist iconoclast? They're sick with jealousy. Because Natalie isn't simply living the good life, she's living the ideal--and just so happens to be building an empire from it. Until one morning she wakes up in a life that isn't hers. Her home, her husband, her children--they're all familiar, but something's off. Her kitchen is warmed by a sputtering fire rather than electricity, her children are dirty and strange, and her soft-handed husband is suddenly a competent farmer. Just yesterday Natalie was curating photos of homemade jam for her Instagram, and now she's expected to haul firewood and handwash clothes until her fingers bleed. Has she become the unwitting star of a ruthless reality show? Could it really be time travel? Is she being tested by God? By Satan? When Natalie suffers a brutal injury in the woods, she realizes two things: this is not her beautiful life, and she must escape by any means possible.   About the author: CARO CLAIRE BURKE received her Master's in Fine Arts from the Bennington Writing Seminars. She is the co-host of Diabolical Lies, a politics and culture podcast. Yesteryear is her first novel.
