Girls on Tour Book Club
Girls on Tour is a book club that aims to keep us connected while shining a light on some bad ass women and gender diverse people in the entertainment industry.
Every month your hosts Monique and Briony will talk endless nonsense about our fiction book of the month, and every ten weeks Monique will be joined by a special guest host to chat about specific roles in the industry and their own remarkable careers.
This book club is for those who tour and the ones who are left behind, for lovers of fantasy, music and theatre and for those who find that most book clubs are not accessible to them due to schedule, physical health, chronic illness and/or mental health.

Slewfoot by Brom
Set in Colonial New England, Slewfoot is a tale of magic and mystery, of triumph and terror as only dark fantasist Brom can tell it.
A spirited young Englishwoman, Abitha, arrives at a Puritan colony betrothed to a stranger – only to become quickly widowed when her husband dies under mysterious circumstances. All alone in this pious and patriarchal society, Abitha fights for what little freedom she can grasp onto, while trying to stay true to herself and her past.
Enter Slewfoot, a powerful spirit of antiquity newly woken ... and trying to find his own role in the world. Healer or destroyer? Protector or predator? But as the shadows walk and villagers start dying, a new rumor is whispered: Witch.
Both Abitha and Slewfoot must swiftly decide who they are, and what they must do to survive in a world intent on hanging any who meddle in the dark arts.
