Don't Forget to Write

By: Laura DiTieri

Narrated by: Lynn Marie Brunk

A heartbreaking, surprisingly funny historical romance set in 1960s New York—where love is powerful enough to outlast time itself.

Trudy Kirchberger has always known what’s expected of her: teach, marry well, and live a respectable life. With Henry, a polished young businessman her parents adore, the path seems certain.

Until Frank walks into her life—a quiet, steady soul whose wit and warmth catch her off guard.

As Trudy begins her first year teaching in Queens, the world around her is shifting. From the shock of President Kennedy’s assassination to the stirrings of women’s rights, she finds herself torn between two futures: one of security and approval, and another of deep, all-consuming love.

But when Frank receives a devastating diagnosis, their story becomes a test of devotion, resilience, and the courage to choose each other even when time is fleeting. Through handwritten letters, late-night conversations, and fleeting moments of joy, Trudy learns that the most unforgettable love stories aren’t measured by years—but by their depth.

Inspired by a true story, Don’t Forget to Write is a sweeping, heart-wrenching tale of love, impossible choices, and the quiet bravery it takes to follow your heart—even when goodbye comes too soon.

Perfect for fans of Nicholas Sparks’ The Notebook, Marianne Cronin’s The One Hundred Years of Lenni and Margot, and Anne Youngson’s Meet Me at the Museum, Don't Forget to Write offers a moving and unforgettable choice for their next book club discussion.
