About the MWC Virtual Book Club

Each month we choose a book that aligns with the MWC monthly topic and the pillar of healthy widowhood we are focusing on that month. We also read about legendary widow role models and invite the author of the book we’re reading to join us whenever possible.

We grow and learn in so many ways in our widowhood. Reading the stories of other widows and their journeys can bring hope and healing. Connecting with other widows and sharing our journey and perspective is so valuable. As we read and discuss these books, we are reminded that we are not alone in our widowhood. The stories of strength and resilience give us hope and the community provides a safe place to heal and grow.

Our MWC Book Club gathers on the 3rd Wednesday of each month at 8pm ET to discuss our most recent read and grow with each other’s experiences and perspectives of the book. This club is for all our Wister’s that love to read and are looking to grow – no matter how long you have been widowed months or years we hope you join us!

MWC Book Club is facilitated by top-tier trained widow-advocates from Modern Widows Club, consisting of compassionate, experienced, non-judgmental, encouraging, and understanding individuals. They are here for you every step of the way.




Voices of Our Wisters® (Widow + Sisters):

“The Modern Widows Club has provided a level of support and understanding I couldn’t find elsewhere. Connecting with women who have experienced the same level of loss has helped me navigate grief with more clarity and confidence. The support, resources, and meaningful live conversations have had a steady, grounding impact on my life as I rebuild both personally and professionally. ”

“MWC gave me the strength & community that I needed right after my husband passed away. Being able to share with other women who had gone through the same trauma that I had, whether it was as recent or not, was extremely helpful to my taking the first steps toward healing. Before joining MWC, I walked around feeling like "an alien" - that I did not fit in anywhere anymore & that no one understood where I was coming from. At my first meeting with MWC that all disappeared. I was with "my people". And they knew exactly what I was going through. MWC has been one of just a few elements that have been instrumental in my healing journey. It has been over 2 years since I lost my husband & I have found happiness again. I could not have done that without the support of MWC.”
