Random House Book Club March Happy Hour

There are some journeys you can’t take alone. That’s what the titular heroine learns in our March Spotlight Pick: The Unsinkable Greta James by Jennifer E. Smith.

After her mother’s sudden death, indie musician Greta James falls apart onstage—just before the launch of her high-stakes sophomore album. When the footage goes viral and throws her career into jeopardy, an adrift and heartbroken Greta reluctantly agrees to accompany her father on the Alaskan cruise her parents had booked for their 40th anniversary. As they attempt to heal old wounds, Greta meets a fellow passenger who’s also struggling with a major upheaval in his own life. She’ll have to decide what the path forward might look like—and how to find her voice again.

The Unsinkable Greta James will have you thinking about heartbreak, family wounds, and the power of second chances. Join us to discuss these themes and more on Thursday, March 31 at 7:30 p.m. ET for our Virtual Happy Hour—featuring a special appearance by author Jennifer E. Smith herself. Save your spot today!
