Today co-host Jenna Bush Hager has chosen The Names by Florence Knapp (Pamela Dorman) as her May Read with Jenna book club pick. The Names, which will be published tomorrow, May 6, "follows a mother named Cora, who is going to register her son's birth. Through three separate storylines in which she gives her son three different names, readers will find out how his life drastically differs with each name."
"We watch these three different realities take place over a lifetime," Jenna said. "We watch a family who comes together, grows apart, and we meet this boy whose name, in three different ways, predicts who he will be. It's a book about second chances. It's a book about family, it's a book about hope."
The Names is Florence Knapp's debut novel.
