This month we are reading a mystery Woman in the Window by A.J. Finn. Originally slated for release in theaters in May 2020, COVID happened and the movie was put on hold. Now, it’s slated for Netflix sometime “early spring.” Watch the trailer here – it looks good! Join us on Tuesday, March 23 at 7 p.m. CST via Zoom.
An Amazon Best Book of January 2018: The Woman in the Window is a seductive and unpredictable novel, like the Hitchcock movies to which author A.J. Finn pays homage. Finn’s protagonist Anna Fox is a child psychologist who lives alone in a New York suburb with a case of agoraphobia so debilitating she hasn’t left the house in months. To occupy her time Anna watches film noir classics from her vast collection, interacts with people online, and sometimes spies on her neighbors. It’s all very innocuous until she sees a horrible crime take place in the house across the park, recently inhabited by a new family. Call the police and report it, right? Things are a little more complicated for Anna—exacerbated by her routine consumption of prescription drugs with a lot of wine. Author A.J. Finn throws curve balls where you least expect them.
