B&N's January Book Club Pick: The Life Cycle of the Common Octopus

Barnes & Noble has chosen The Life Cycle of the Common Octopus by Emma Knight (Pamela Dorman Books) as its January national book club pick. In a live virtual event on Tuesday, February 4, at 3 p.m. Eastern, Knight will be in conversation with Lexie Smyth, category manager for fiction at B&N.

Smyth said, "Our heroine, Pen, a young Canadian woman starting her first year at University of Edinburgh, is determined to uncover the secrets she believes her divorced parents are keeping from her. Searching for answers, she finds herself swept up in the wealthy and eccentric family of Lord Lennox, a famous writer and friend of her father. Both a campus novel and a story of pastoral wealth reminiscent of Evelyn Waugh, this warm, funny, and sparkling novel will give readers so much to talk about."
