Your vacation at Pebbles just got a lot more literary, thanks to a curated book club — paired with a complimentary wine hour and an exclusive discount.
One of the things — perhaps the only thing, honestly — that’s easy to miss about vacations: having in-depth conversations with like-minded voyagers.

- Educated: A Memoir
by Tara Westover
Summary: A #1 New York Times Bestseller, Educated is an unforgettable memoir about a young girl who, kept out of school, leaves her survivalist family and goes on to earn a PhD from Cambridge University. Educated is an account of the struggle for self-invention. It is a tale of fierce family loyalty, and of the grief that comes from severing one’s closest ties. With the acute insight that distinguishes all great writers, Westover has crafted a universal coming-of-age story that gets to the heart of what an education is and what it offers: the perspective to see one’s life through new eyes, and the will to change it.
