Perhaps it was Catch You Later you couldn’t put down, or The Last Caretaker that you absolutely had to recommend to a friend. Now, just as summer reading season heats up, USA Today bestselling author Jessica Strawser is releasing her eighth novel, The Quitters Club — and it’s just as captivating.    

When four ride-or-die friends reunite for a getaway, they’re desperate for a break, a chance to reconnect. But each is hiding a deeper reason why. Marie feels like an impostor teaching “How to Say No” seminars while her marriage has evolved into something she never said yes to. Brooke’s most heartfelt goal — motherhood — is proving out of reach. Lucy’s dream career has broken her spirit, possibly for good. And Collins feels trapped in grief by her late husband’s legacy. 

All their lives, they’ve encouraged each other not to give up. But they can’t do this anymore. Now, at a breaking point, they make a pact: Quit. And help each other through the fallout. 

It’s another Strawser classic laced perfectly with love and loss, hope and heartache, reveals and redemption. One you’ll want to dive in and read every word for yourself. Get your copy of The Quitters Club (or one of Jessica’s other musts) and set a date for a sunny day at the pool, beach, or backyard escape.

CATCH YOU LATER
“A road trip story, best friend story, and missing person mystery, all rolled into one,” offers Jessica. 

THE LAST CARETAKER
“This book celebrates the often hidden (and sometimes heroic) ways that women show up for one another.”

NOT THAT I COULD TELL
“Set in idyllic Yellow Springs and often billed for fans of Big Little Lies, it remains my all-time bestseller!”
