SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Michael Elias discusses & signs Bender’s L.A.
DESCRIPTION:In the coke-dusted canyons and deal-making rooms of 1970s Los Angeles\, Bender’s L.A. follows writer David Bender as he sets out to remake his life – romantically\, professionally\, and spiritually – after his wife walks out in Puerto Vallarta with a single sentence and a suitcase. \nWhile the Vietnam War casts its shadow\, Bender runs afoul of Nixon’s FBI\, plays tennis with fugitive Abbie Hoffman\, arms himself against a homicidal producer\, and goes back in time to fall in love with a young Marilyn Monroe. Bender weaves through a world of players\, radicals\, writers and artists including a woman suspiciously like Eve Babitz. \nHaunted by his New York past and guided by his Sun Tzu-quoting agent Neil Navitz\, Bender begins to wonder whether success has cost him the things that mattered – or whether he ever truly possessed them. \nWith a comic edge\, Elias offers a bitter-sweet meditation on love\, memory\, and the moral compromise of the Hollywood illusion machine and the misfits it often mangles along the way. In this tragicomedy of nostalgia and recovery\, Bender prevails.

SUMMARY:Alicia Upano\, discusses & signs Everything to the Sea
DESCRIPTION:Part riveting love story\, part coming-of-age tale\, Everything to the Sea is a breathtaking debut novel spanning years and shores after a sudden tsunami devastates the island of Hawai’i and cuts short a young couple’s budding romance—a deeply moving testament to the catastrophes love can endure. \nThis is how the story goes: Jane will fall in love. And then all of this will vanish. \nHome for one final summer\, Jane is working and saving cash for her senior year of college before she leaves her island town behind forever. At first\, she doesn’t remember Kenji\, but he quickly becomes someone she can’t forget: square jaw\, a dimple in his cheek. A Hilo boy. To Kenji\, she’s Janie\, nose perpetually buried in her old high school sketchbooks. Jane tells herself it’s only a fling—one perfect\, carefree summer\, on her way to achieving her dream of becoming an architect and moving to the continent. \nThen a tsunami sweeps their families out to sea\, and their all-consuming affair breaks with the weight of grief\, pulling them in opposite directions. Kenji remains in Hawai’i\, bound by duty to rebuild their hometown. Jane\, shattered by the loss\, follows her best friend to California. For seven years\, an ocean lies between them\, until Jane and Kenji meet on another coast . . . \nIn prose that sparkles like sun on the water\, Upano’s debut novel tells the unforgettable story of two young people as they come of age\, fall in love\, forge new families\, and try to find their way back together\, again and again. Everything to the Sea is a moving portrait of our ability to overcome even the most devastating tragedies\, when everything else is washed away.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Dr. Niki Elliott discusses & signs Heart-Centered Connections: Seven Essential Skills for Helping Neurodiverse and Marginalized Children Thrive
DESCRIPTION:A transformative guide for anyone working with the child who is left out\, left behind\, or labeled “difficult.” \nHeart-Centered Connections teaches the best practices to support kids who are misunderstood and marginalized–those who are neurodivergent\, have a learning disability\, or are trauma survivors. They have extraordinary potential waiting to be unleashed. \nHeart-Centered Connections is based on decades of groundbreaking research with over 1\,000 child-serving professionals–principals\, teachers\, foster care program directors\, social workers\, and parents. Dr. Elliott offers seven pillars that will help you create environments where kids can achieve their full potential. Children mirror adults’ emotions\, which is why the first pillar is Self-Awareness. What is your state when you engage with the child? Other pillars include Interpersonal Awareness\, Neuroinclusive Spaces\, Activated Genius\, Engaged Learning\, Mindful Communication\, and Heart-Centered Repair. You will learn how to: \n– Increase your ability to handle stress so you remain composed when a child acts out \n– Establish stronger bonds\, even with kids who initially seem defiant \n– Teach in a way that creates joy and confidence \n– Design neuroinclusive environments in which youth of all abilities can flourish \n– View the child from a new perspective\, offering them choice and dignity \n– Help the child settle their nervous system state so they can focus and learn \nIn this practical book\, Dr. Elliott brings clear guidance and a hopeful message: when safety\, compassion\, and trust come first\, real learning can begin. Heart-Centered Connections shows you how to create that foundation.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Brooke Nevils discusses & signs Unspeakable Things: Silence\, Shame\, and the Stories We Choose to Believe
DESCRIPTION:A powerful and personal examination of our most persistent and dangerous misunderstandings\, myths and stereotypes about sexual harassment and assault \nIn 2017\, Brooke Nevils made a confidential HR complaint about one of the most powerful and familiar faces in media. Twenty-four hours later\, the highest paid morning news anchor in history was fired\, stunning millions of Americans in one of the MeToo era’s defining stories. Demanding answers–and the intimate details of the most personal and painful humiliation of her life–the press soon discovered her identity. \nBut hers was not the kind of black-and-white story the media knew how to tell. There’d been no explicit threats. She hadn’t screamed\, fought\, or gone to the police. Instead\, she returned to her abuser again and again in a frantic attempt to “fix” an impossible situation that threatened her livelihood and the people closest to her. Yet as MeToo unfolded\, Brooke learned that messy stories like hers were far from the exception\, and that nearly everything she’d believed about sexual harassment and assault–and how victims react to it–was wrong. She began a yearslong effort to confront and understand her own experience\, not simply as a woman reckoning with her past\, but as a journalist confronting the critical questions that MeToo asked but ultimately left unanswered. \nThrough groundbreaking interviews with leading clinicians\, forensic professionals\, attorneys\, and frontline researchers\, Unspeakable Things challenges our understanding of consent\, power\, and the lingering\, often misunderstood effects of trauma and shame. Despite its rarefied setting at the height of fame\, power\, and American media\, Brooke’s story serves as a textbook example of an all-too-common scenario that continues to devastate lives and enable abusers. This book is a powerful re-examination of everything we think we know\, the start to a new conversation\, and–for anyone who has ever felt ashamed\, hopeless\, alone\, and afraid–a light in the dark.

SUMMARY:Pasadena Playhouse: Mexodus
DESCRIPTION:Mexodus – the New York Times Critic’s Pick new musical created and performed by Brian Quijada and Nygel D. Robinson – comes straight from New York to the Playhouse stage this summer. This electrifying experience explores a hidden chapter of the Underground Railroad – one that moved south\, by crossing the Rio Grande toward liberation in Mexico. This groundbreaking musical amplifies the story of a freedom seeker and an unlikely ally as they forge a remarkable bond that transcends borders. It’s history remixed. It’s a ride you won’t want to miss.
