Barnes & Noble Selects Sarah Langan’s Good Neighbors as February 2021 National Book Club Selection
Readers Invited to a Free Virtual Book Club Event Featuring Sarah Langan on Tuesday, March 2
Barnes & Noble, Inc., with bookstores in every state across the United States, today announced Good Neighbors by Sarah Langan as the February 2021 selection for the Barnes & Noble Book Club, a monthly book club designed for readers across the country to discuss the most compelling books. Barnes & Noble is selling a special, exclusive Book Club edition of Good Neighbors as well as hosting a free LIVE virtual event on B&N’s Facebook Page with Sarah Langan about the book on Tuesday, March 2, at 3pm East Coast Time. Customers can purchase the exclusive edition, featuring a bonus essay from the Sarah Langan, in-stores or online at BN.com.
“Good Neighbors is a chilling dive into the mysteries hidden beneath the veneer of suburbia” said Jackie De Leo, Vice President, Bookstore, Barnes & Noble. “This darkly humorous and brutal story of neighbors dealing with a sudden local tragedy is a riveting look at motherhood, friendships and social class. We are sure our Book Club readers will be as enthralled by the story as we were.”
Barnes & Noble invites customers to join the B&N Book Club Facebook Group to share their views of the book as well as attend the virtual Book Club event one month after publication to hear from Sarah Langan.
“When I learned Barnes & Noble had chosen Good Neighbors as its February pick, I was so excited I could hardly talk. I have shopped at B&Ns all my life,” said Sarah Langan. “In my twenties, I did my writing in the B&N coffee shop on West 82 Street and Broadway. I now live in Los Angeles and bring my daughters to the Studio City and Grove stores. The last time we were there, I was able to say: ‘You see that table, with the book club books? I’m going to be on that table.’ I am so honored.”
The virtual event with Sarah Langan on March 2 will be hosted on Barnes & Noble’s Facebook Page. Before the virtual event, customers can also join in discussion at their convenience on the new B&N Book Club Facebook group and on social media via the hashtag #BNBookClub.
Previous Barnes & Noble Book Club selections have included: The Female Persuasion by Meg Wolitzer, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing by Hank Green, The Last Romantics by Tara Conklin, The Island of Sea Women by Lisa See, Lost Roses by Martha Hall Kelly, Mrs. Everything by Jennifer Weiner, The Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead, Inland by Téa Obreht, The Testaments by Margaret Atwood, Dear Edward by Ann Napolitano, and The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett.
