Peruse Review June 2022: Literary Fiction Box
Peruse brings avid readers a little something to round out their reading experience. Each box includes 1 book, 3-4 hand picked items, themed recipes, and discussion questions. Items in our boxes could include home goods, accessories, snacks, jewelry, etc. They offer both mystery and literary fiction clubs to ensure you’ll get a title you love every month! They kindly sent us this box for review.
Peruse has 2 subscription options to choose from and they were kind enough to send me both boxes to share with you for the month of June. Today we are looking at the June Literary Fiction Club and you can see my review for the Mystery/Suspense Club HERE.

Here’s a closer look at the June Literary Fiction Peruse Book Club….
It All Comes Down to This
“Meet the Geller sisters: Beck, Claire, and Sophie, a trio of strong-minded women whose pragmatic, widowed mother, Marti, will be dying soon. Marti has ensured that her modest estate is easy for her family once she’s gone––including a provision that the family’s summer cottage on Mount Desert Island, Maine, must be sold, the proceeds split equally between the three girls.
Beck, the eldest, is a freelance journalist whose marriage looks more like a sibling bond than a passionate partnership. In fact, her husband is hiding a troubling truth about his love life. For Beck, the Maine cottage has been essential to her secret wish to write a novel––and to remake the terms of her relationship.
Despite her accomplishments as a pediatric cardiologist, Claire, the middle daughter, has always felt like the Geller misfit. Recently divorced, Claire’s unrequited love for the wrong man is slowly destroying her, and she’s finding that her expertise on matters of the heart unfortunately doesn’t extend to her own.
Youngest daughter Sophie appears to live an Instagram-ready life, filled with glamorous work and travel, celebrities, fashion, art, and sex. In reality, her existence is a cash-strapped house of cards that may tumble at any moment.
But when C.J. Reynolds, an enigmatic southerner with his own hidden past enters the picture, the future of the Maine cottage––and of the sisters themselves––will take on an entirely new dimension.”
Swedish Dish Cloth: Here we have a set of 3 Swedish Dish Cloths and I am here to tell you….If you haven’t tried these before, YOU MUST! I absolutely love these cloths, especially for wiping down counters. They work ten times better than regular cloths and you can throw them in the dishwasher.
Coasters: These coasters are so pretty and so calming to look at. We received a set of 4 and I already have one sitting on my desk. I just LOVE looking at the trees and the water.
Turkish Beach Towels: This is an item I LOVE to receive because they are so versatile and it’s the kind of item I am happy to have in multiples. I keep a couple in the car and, depending on the color, I also like to use them as throws.
Peruse Review June 2022 – Final Thoughts
I am a huge fan of Peruse and think they did a fabulous job with both book clubs for June. I love the simplicity of this subscription. They focus on a great read and a few quality items that make you feel pampered. The items we received in this particular box are both beautiful and useful. I definitely prefer the Mystery/Suspense Club because that is my genre of choice, but with that being said I LOVE the fact that they have 2 options because it’s kind of nice to mix things up every now and then.
