For three decades, Grace supported her husband Franks passion for books, despite not being a reader herself. Since his passing, their shelves echo longingly, and Graces heartache has only grown.

When Graces grandson suggests joining Franks old book club to feel closer to him again, Grace reluctantly agrees. Yet, upon arrival, she discovers this isnt a typical book club: here, members settle in for an hour of reading in silence.

Disappointed by the sparse attendance and confused by the lack of chatter, Grace flees. But when fellow member, Annie, convinces her to stay, Grace is determined to ensure that neither Frank nor his beloved book club are forgotten.

And as she breathes new life into the group, Grace might just find this is where she truly belongs. Because this next chapter of life could just be the beginning of her story
