Join All She Wrote Books on Saturday, March 14th at 7:00pm, as we host author Alli Hoff Kosik and Courtney Marzilli (Books Are Chic Podcast)! They will discuss Kosik's debut, Too Blessed to Stress, the perfect book for fans of Bad Summer People and The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, four influencers begin to suspect their mega-church's new pastor isn’t as devoted as he seems, and must decide if exposing him is worth revealing their own secrets.
"Inclusivity" isn't just a buzzword to us. We make every effort to ensure our space and events are accessible to and for everyone. If you or someone in your party needs accommodations, please email us at [email protected].
About Too Blessed to Stress
"A delightful satire full of tenderness and heart. Alli has the ears of a journalist and the gentle touch of a friend." —Kiley Reid, New York Times bestselling author
"Alli Hoff Kosik’s debut is a triumph." —Meg Cabot, #1 New York Times bestselling author
Camryn, Savannah, Trishy, and Kristin are #blessed. As influencers at the hottest megachurch in town, Moving Word, the quartet is committed to sharing everything from modest (but on-trend!) style tips to advice on finding the godliest man possible. Across platforms (#synergy), they show just how easy it is to be a modern, Christian woman—especially if you use their discount codes.
But behind their veneer (and veneers), the truth isn’t quite so picture perfect. Despite her popular lifestyle videos, Camryn is barely making ends meet. Savannah struggles to break free of her reality TV upbringing and start a family of her own, while Trishy attempts to leave her less-than-holy past behind. And Kristin, the group’s youngest member, isn’t finding it as easy to fit in as their color-coordinated outfits make it seem.
When Moving Word’s charming leader, Pastor Kyle, and his ridiculously perfect wife, Cassidy, decide to host a lavish fundraiser to put the megachurch further on the map, Camryn, Savannah, Trishy, and Kristin find themselves knee deep in the most important event since the Last Supper. But the brighter the spotlight, the darker the shadows—and when the women discover an incendiary secret at the heart of Moving Word, they are forced to confront questions of hypocrisy, exposure, and how to wield one’s power for good.
