Fawn Design Book Club + Summer Reading List
We love to binge-watch our current Netflix obsession or do a deep-dive on Instagram as much as the next gal, but lately we've been feeling the tug to unplug and take more breaks from technology. Luckily, we're big book lovers around the Fawn Design office, so in an effort to put our phone down and pick up a book instead, we decided to launch the Fawn Design Book Club!
Join us as we read a new book each month and discuss it during an Instagram Live at the end of the month. We'll be reading books that focus on womanhood and motherhood, from memoirs to novels, by a variety of female authors. See below for all the info about our Book Club pick for July, and stay tuned to our Instagram for more details!

We can't wait to dive in! Get a copy here.
CITY OF GIRLS by Elizabeth Gilbert

MRS. EVERYTHING by Jennifer Weiner
This heartfelt novel tells the tale of two sisters, Jo and Bethie Kaufman, over the course of 65 years.

Don't let the cheesy cover fool you—this book is a solid gem. Another story that inspired a hit HBO series, My Beautiful Friend is the first book in a trilogy of Neapolitan novels.
