The Girlfriend Author Interview: Kate Quinn, October 2024 – ‘The Briar Club’

Intrigue, female friendship, a 1950s boarding house and actual recipes all went into bestselling author of ‘The Rose Code’ Kate Quinn’s post-pandemic book. ‘It really did come out of ... how much I was missing the people in my life I had not been able to gather around a dinner table with for what felt like eons. I was thinking about a book about community, women lifting each other up, food, wine, secrets and all the things that happen when you push these things together at a really good dinner party.’ Join our free, private Facebook group, The Girlfriend Book Club, for more author talks, great recommendations and regular giveaways!
