The Premonitions Club Student Award

January 22, 2026 by Gwendolyn Womack

I’m honored and thrilled to find out The Premonitions Club was awarded the Horace Mann Mock Newbery Medal for Best Book of 2025 by the Horace Mann School in New York City. A committee 33 of middle schoolers voted it as their favorite book of the year.

They shared with me some of their comments why they chose The Premonitions Club:

“I loved The Premonitions Club, and I think it should win the HM Newbery! It is very exciting and made it really hard to put down the book, especially when they were introducing the plot. The characters are totally relatable, and I think everyone would enjoy it.”

“It is a nice romance and it’s quite thrilling.”

“The characters are well written and the plot is enjoyable.”

“I really like The Premonitions Club. It was very much a thriller while also managing to keep a thoughtful plot and message.”

“I finished it in about two sittings. I could not stop reading. The plot is gripping and the characters are really relatable.”

“IT IS AMAZING! I am a really impatient reader but The Premonitions Club has fast plot development.”

“I liked how the author wrote from different perspectives and gave each character a lot of depth and complexity.”

“Womack’s worldbuilding was truly masterful, and the Sci-Fi-esque organizations and terms that she used made me feel like I was there with Liv, Winnie, Jaxon, and Forrester reading the letters. The book was incredibly well-written, and the author did a very good job of making a complex plot accessible and easy to understand.”

“It is extremely captivating. It is also a very relatable book.”

“The Premonitions Club has a cool concept, and the mystery keeps the story moving.”

“I think The Premonitions Club is an AMAZING book. The detail is plentiful and the perceptions technique is very clever.”

Thank you so much, Horace Mann School!

I’m looking forward to Zooming with the students and talking about the story. If you are with a middle school or high school, please check out The Premonitions Club and don’t hesitate to reach out if you’d like me to talk with your class. ❤️

About the story…

Magellan Brighton may be a musical prodigy with limitless talent, but her soul yearns for something more than playing in concert halls or at weddings. As the world is on the brink of a catastrophic polar shift, she mysteriously vanishes while playing an ancient organ and awakens in 1829. The answers to why lie in a lost diary belonging to Gwynedd, Merlin’s forgotten twin sister.

Rhys Sherwood, the dashing and brooding Earl of Liron, is still haunted by the memory of his father, a scientist and historian who was killed in an experiment gone wrong. When Rhys stumbles upon a strange woman at the center of his estate’s labyrinth, her arrival couldn’t have come at a worse time, interrupting an important house party he’d planned to select his future wife.

Yet the two find themselves inexplicably drawn to each other, and when they discover that Magellan’s musical gifts and the diary are connected, they must uncover its secrets and connection to the key to saving the world. From candlelit medieval abbeys to opulent Renaissance courts in a perilous journey through the past to find the key, Magellan must risk everything and face the sinister forces who want the key for themselves.

The Premonitions Club Launch!

April 23, 2025 by Gwendolyn Womack

Hello!! Yesterday, 4/22, was the release date for The Premonitions Club!!! My dear friend, Beth Szymkowski, who the book is dedicated to, came to town to celebrate with me. I had a wonderful book launch at Murder By The Book in Houston. Thank you to everyone who came! 

I had everyone sign the front and back inside covers of my book (like a yearbook) to have as a keepsake for the night. Before the Q&A, we also did a little numerology and everyone figured out their life number and destiny number. It was pretty hysterical how bad at math we all were.

Signed copies are now available at Murder By The Book, in store & online along with my other books.

& I’m thrilled to say The Premonitions Club is now available everywhere books are sold!

For audiobook lovers, my publisher assembled an amazing cast. If you haven’t gotten yours yet, take a listen. The book is narrated by Bailey Carr, Hillary Huber, Tim Campbell & James Anderson Foster, and I couldn’t be more excited to share it with listeners.

Cheers!

PS – Beth & I took the picture of the book with the plasma ball. It’s one of my favorites.
