📚 Reading the P*e Dee is a monthly feature spotlighting books that offer a taste of life in the P*e Dee.

This month’s pick is Lightning in a Mason Jar by Catherine Mann, an emotional Southern story set in Bent Oak, South Carolina. Spanning decades, the novel follows Bailey Rae Rigby as she uncovers her late aunt Winnie’s long-held secrets — a hidden code, a safe haven for women in need, and a powerful legacy of resilience, friendship, and courage.

Each month, we’ll share a new read that brings the P*e Dee to life through its people, places, history, culture, and stories.
Let the P*e Dee come alive one page at a time. 🌿

What books have you read that remind you of the P*e Dee Region of South Carolina?
