Regina Black's August Lane is a compelling novel exploring family secrets, memory, and the weight of history in a Southern community. Through interconnected narratives spanning generations, Black examines how the past shapes the present and how silence can be both protection and poison. The novel becomes a meditation on what we inherit, what we choose to remember, and how communities reckon with uncomfortable truths. WHY WE PICKED IT: Because Black understands that family secrets don't stay buried, they just grow roots. This novel reminds us that the stories we don't tell shape us as much as the ones we do, and that healing requires facing what we've been taught to ignore.
