Michigan Public’s book club, Michigan Public Reads, has announced its next featured book: My Murder by Lansing-native Katie Williams
From Penguin Random House, My Murder is described as "a devour-in-one-sitting, clever twist on the classic thriller." The premise follows Lou, a happily married wife and mother, who also is a victim of a local serial killer. Lou is brought back to life through a government project. But as she returns to her normal life, questions arise about what preceded her death and who she can really trust.
We'll be discussing the book Thursday, May 30, at 7p.m. at Schuler Books in Okemos, Michigan. Register here. Author Katie Williams will join Stateside producer Mercedes Mejia, and other Michigan Public staff members in Okemos for a conversation about the book. You can find your own copy here.
This event is open to the public and readers are encouraged to join. There will also be a Zoom option for statewide listeners. While we encourage those joining the discussion to have read the book, we also welcome non-readers to come and connect with other Michigan Public listeners. The next selection for the Michigan Public Reads book club will also be announced at the end of the evening.
Previous books read and discussed by Michigan Public Reads were Jemele Hill's Uphill, Kelsey Ronan's Chevy in the Hole, Angeline Boulley's Firekeeper's Daughter and Kiley Reid's Come and Get It.
