The Divorce Club

When a marriage ends, what comes next isn't the end-it's the beginning of a new story. After twenty-five years of stability and structure, Eleanor Vance's life unravels with a single sentence: "We need to talk." Left adrift in the quiet town of Willow Creek, the librarian who once found comfort in other people's stories must now write her own. The cozy routines that once grounded her-morning tea, organized shelves, and polite conversation-now feel hollow. But when Eleanor's pain draws her into an unexpected circle of women each facing their own crossroad, she discovers that even broken hearts can form beautiful patterns. Enter The Divorce Club-a sanctuary for renewal, laughter, and rediscovery. Chloe, a painter struggling with creative burnout; Maya, a therapist haunted by her own loss; and Sarah, a lawyer questioning the cost of her ambition, all find themselves drawn to Eleanor's "New Beginnings" meeting. Together, these women build something larger than support-they build friendship, courage, and a shared sense of purpose. In the safety of their small group, secrets are spoken aloud, vulnerabilities become strengths, and new dreams take root. Tender, inspiring, and beautifully written, The Divorce Club is a celebration of second chances. Cedric Kanyinda crafts a moving exploration of womanhood, resilience, and the quiet heroism found in everyday reinvention. Perfect for readers who love Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine and The Light We Lost, this novel reminds us that the end of one story can be the start of something extraordinary-and that sometimes, the most powerful love stories are the ones we write for ourselves.
