TBJ Book Club – 12:30pm on Tuesday, May 2. Discussion of the book “The Forest of Vanishing Stars” by Kristen Harmel. After being stolen from her wealthy German parents and raised in the unforgiving wilderness of eastern Europe, a young woman finds herself alone in 1941 after her kidnapper dies. Stunned to learn what’s happening in the outside world, she vows to teach a group of people all she can about surviving in the forest—and in turn, they teach her some surprising lessons about opening her heart after years of isolation. But when she is betrayed and escapes into a German-occupied village, her past and present come together in a shocking collision that could change everything.
