Mark your calendar for Friday, October 2 as your Niagara Frontier Radio Reading Service begins a new best seller for late night listeners!

The Shakespeare Ladies Club by Christine and Jonathan Hainsworth is a fascinating portrayal of the small group of women hailed by the authors as the savior of William Shakepeare.

Formed in 1736, the Club is considered the first secular book club. These women used their wealth and influence to fight against a post-Puritan culture that viewed theatre as immoral.

Listen Fridays and Saturdays from 11 PM to 1 AM beginning Friday through October 16.

You can also hear two hours of best sellers Saturday and Sunday mornings from 6 AM to 8 AM on your Niagara Frontier Radio Reading Service.
