brwnbox high society book club
The High Society Book club is a private membership community in the US dedicated to promoting overall well-being and community health. Founded in partnership with Brwnbox and Encountering Grace wellness communities, our book club is a key feature aimed at fostering analog practices like reading and creative expression. We focus on elevating discussions surrounding life, literature, and wellness, with a special emphasis on amplifying the voices of marginalized authors. Through virtual round-tables, in-person meetings, and community events, we inspire connection and well-being. As a membership house dedicated to wellness, we read books by authors from marginalized groups and explore diverse subjects, striving to be well-rounded readers and individuals.
Our book club serves as an extension of our commitment to wellness, connecting BIPOC individuals while exploring literature by authors from marginalized backgrounds. We delve into various genres, including works by native American, black, LGBTQI, female, and Asian authors, alongside literature on finance, psychology, fiction, and thought leadership. Our goal is to deepen our understanding of ourselves and the world. If you're inspired by our mission, we invite you to review our bylaws and consider joining our community.

Such Charming Liars by Karen M. McManus
For all of Kat’s life, it’s just been her and her mother, Jamie—except for the forty-eight hours when Jamie was married and Kat had a stepbrother, Liam. That all ended in an epic divorce, and Kat and Liam haven’t spoken since.
Now Jamie is a jewel thief trying to go straight, but she has one last job—at billionaire Ross Sutherland’s birthday party. And Kat has figured out a way to tag along. What Kat doesn’t know, though, is that there are two surprise guests at the dazzling Sutherland compound that weekend. The last two people she wants to run into. Liam and his father—a serial scammer who has his sights set on Ross Sutherland’s youngest daughter.
Kat and Liam are on a collision course to disaster, and when a Sutherland dies, they realize they might actually be in the killer’s crosshairs themselves. Somehow Kat and Liam are the new targets, and they can’t trust anyone—except each other.
Or can they? Because if there’s one thing both Kat and Liam know, it’s how to lie. They learned from the best.
