The Bunco Club Karen Dewitt First edition

THE BUNCO CLUB has been named 2013 BOOK OF THE YEAR FINALIST by the Chicago Writers Association.
No Bunco experience is necessary to enjoy this book, so grab the dice and share the fun and favorite recipes of Bunco night! Eight women, eight months, eight individual tales merge into one compelling story of friendship in THE BUNCO CLUB. Attitudes surface and personalities clash as struggles, secrets, and obsessions emerge. Follow the lives of eight quilters from Chicagoland as they gather once a month to play Bunco, the popular no-skills dice game. The last thing Lettie wants is for a member to quit their Bunco Club, but a well-guarded hoarding obsession may cause that very thing to happen. When Nancy's one-love contacts her after twenty years, she shares tidbits each month about the devastating breakup along with news of a possible reunion, and she finds there is no shortage of opinions from the women of THE BUNCO CLUB. Follow the members as their stories are revealed and woven together through the bond of friendship--from a heart stopping discovery of a national historic treasure, to a 39-year-old secret, to a mom whose child is devastated from being bullied. Eight women capture the hearts of readers who will long to be members of THE BUNCO CLUB.
