About the Book
Book: The Fifth Avenue Story SocietyAuthor: Rachel Hauck
Genre: Contemporary Romance/ Women’s Fiction
Release Date: February 4, 2020
An invitation to join The Fifth Avenue Story Society gives five New York strangers a chance to rewrite their own stories.
Executive assistant Lexa is eager for a much-deserved promotion, but her boss is determined to keep her underemployed.
Literature professor Jett is dealing with a
broken heart, as well as a nagging suspicion his literary idol, Gordon
Phipps Roth, might be a fraud.
Uber driver Chuck just wants a second chance with his kids.
Aging widower Ed is eager to write the true story of his incredible marriage.
Coral, queen of the cosmetics industry, has
broken her engagement and is on the verge of losing her great
grandmother’s multimillion-dollar empire.
When all five New Yorkers receive an
anonymous, mysterious invitation to the Fifth Avenue Story Society, they
suspect they’re victims of a practical joke. No one knows who sent the
invitations or why. No one has heard of the literary society. And no one
is prepared to bear their deepest secrets to a roomful of strangers.
Yet curiosity and loneliness bring them
back week after week to the old library. And it’s there they discover
the stories of their hearts, and the kind of friendship and love that
heals their souls.

My Thoughts
I never know what to expect when I pick up a Rachel Hauck book. Every single one is totally different and unexpected. I do love this cover! This story has A LOT of characters but surprisingly it is fairly easy to keep up with them all. I really enjoyed the story society aspect and how it pulled all of the characters and pieces of the book together. Coral and Jett are my favorites simply because of their personalities and perspectives. While I was expecting a little stronger faith aspect some details at the end surprised me and so I encourage you to read until the end. While this story isn't terribly fast paced I really enjoyed looking into the lives of the many people involved. I liked seeing how the characters grew over the course of the pages. While this wasn't my favorite book by Rachel I still found it enjoyable!
Four Stars.
