SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Molly Ruttan\, in conversation with Stacy Lynn Carroll\, discusses The Yowlers
DESCRIPTION:A playful picture book about the transformative power of being nice \nThe Yowler family is always in a monstrously bad mood: Papa grumbles\, Mama yells\, Sara and Sonya bicker\, and the baby fusses day and night. They’re so used to being grumpy that when their new neighbors smile at them\, the Yowlers are puzzled and are immediately suspicious. And when the new kids ask Sara and Sonya to play? Well\, that’s just plain odd. Then again\, it does feel good to be treated kindly . . . and all of a sudden the sisters start acting nicer themselves\, causing Mama and Papa to wonder if they’re coming down with something. But as it turns out\, even the smallest acts of kindness can be powerful. The weather may have been stormy— but there is friendliness is in the forecast!

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Jesse Katz\, in conversation with Héctor Tobar\, discusses The Rent Collectors: Exploitation\, Murder\, and Redemption in Immigrant LA
DESCRIPTION:Baby-faced teen Giovanni Macedo is desperate to find belonging in one of LA’s most predatory gangs\, the Columbia Lil Cycos—so desperate that he agrees to kill an undocumented Mexican street vendor. The vendor\, Francisco Clemente\, had been refusing to give in to the gang’s shakedown demands. But Giovanni botches the hit\, accidentally killing a newborn instead. The overlords who rule the Lil Cycos from a Supermax prison 1\,000 miles away must be placated and Giovanni is lured across the border where\, in turn\, the gang botches his killing. And so\, incredibly\, Giovanni rises from the dead\, determined to both seek redemption for his unforgivable crime and take down the gang who drove him to do it. \n  \nWith The Rent Collectors\, Jesse Katz has built a teeth clenching and breathless narrative that explicates the difficult and proud lives of undocumented black market workers who are being extorted by the gangs and fined by the city of LA—in other words\, exploited by two sets of rent collectors.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Aaron Carnes\, in conversation with Dan Ozzi\, discusses In Defense of Ska: Expanded 2nd Edition
DESCRIPTION:With an additional 30\,000 words of compelling stories\, research\, and analysis\, music journalist and ‘In Defense of Ska’ podcast creator/host Aaron Carnes presents the case that ska never died\, by jumping headfirst into ska’s “lost years\,” i.e.\, the period after the ’90s third-wave ska boom. \nNew topics covered include LA’s ongoing vibrant traditional ska scene and how young Latinos are keeping the ska torch aflame\, how the devastation of Hurricane Katrina inadvertently kicked off a thriving scene focused on keeping community alive in New Orleans\, a deep review of Christian ska group Five Iron Frenzy\, who broke a Kickstarter record in the ’10s while making progressive activists out of their fan base\, a close inspection of a hipster rocksteady scene in Brooklyn that grew so popular it nearly kicked off a nationwide revival\, and more secret ska past revelations with none other than Fall Out Boy lead singer Patrick Stump—who has a story that\, up until recently\, was carefully guarded. \nPlus\, the book re-explores several bands featured in the first edition\, revealing new layers and more details about all the bands fans love\, like Mighty Mighty Bosstones\, Operation Ivy\, the Slackers\, Hepcat\, Mephiskapheles\, and Reel Big Fish. With 30\,000 additional words\, this is the complete ska package.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Julie Schnieders discusses A Hunt for Bugs!
DESCRIPTION:What is Charlie to do on a rainy day after his iPad no longer works? Bored\, Charlie wants magic\, adventure\, and even to slay a dragon When a rainbow suddenly appears\, Charlie steps outside to take a sensory journey through his neighborhood discovering the sights\, sounds\, and smell of nature. On his walk\, Charlie learns much more about the world around him than he would have just playing video games. \nAbout the Author:\nJulie Schnieders grew up in South Pasadena\, California\, where her family settled over 100 years ago. As a child\, her parents took her hiking in the local mountains and on vacation at the beach where she collected seashells by the dozens. Her dad owned an ice cream business and candy shop—a child’s dream! Her early childhood memories fostered in her a love of nature\, exploration\, and of course\, a sweet tooth! \nJulie has written freelance stories for The Tidings\, Angelus News\, and Quarterly Magazine. She also taught elementary school\, which piqued her interest in children’s books. \nToday\, Julie calls Northwest Montana home where her adventure continues. The beauty of wildlife\, starry skies\, and the great outdoors inspire her to write stories about how nature cultivates the creativity and curiosity of children of all ages. \nJulie is a wife and mother of two grown children. She is still on the hunt for the next great story.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: M.T. Anderson discusses Nicked
DESCRIPTION:From the award-winning and bestselling author of Feed comes a raucous and slyly funny adult fiction debut. Based on a bizarre but true quest to steal the mystical corpse of a long-dead saint\, Nicked is a fantastical\, genre-defying\, and delightfully queer historical romp. \nThe year is 1087\, and a pox is sweeping through the Italian city of Bari. When a lowly monk is visited by Saint Nicholas in his dreams\, he interprets the vision as a call to serve the sick. But his superiors\, and the power brokers they serve\, have different plans for the tender-hearted Brother Nicephorus. \nEnter Tyun\, a charismatic treasure hunter renowned for “liberating” holy relics from their tombs. Tyun says that the seven-hundred-year-old bones of Saint Nicholas are rumored to weep a mysterious liquid that can heal the sick. For the humble price of a small fortune\, he will steal the bones and deliver them to Bari\, curing the plague and restoring glory to the fallen city. And Nicephorus\, the “dreamer\,” will be his guide. \nWhat follows is a heist for the ages\, as Nicephorus is swept away on strange tides\, and alongside even stranger bedfellows\, to commit sacrilegious theft. Based on real historical accounts\, Nicked is a swashbuckling saga\, a medieval novel noir\, a meditation on the miraculous\, and a monastic meet-cute\, filled with wide-eyed wonder at the world that awaits beyond our own borders.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Elizabeth Ai\, in conversation with Oliver Wang\, discuss New Wave: Rebellion and Reinvention in the Vietnamese Diaspora
DESCRIPTION:Fifty years of the Vietnamese Diaspora as seen through the New Wave movement\, showing how young Vietnamese refugees in Orange County found rebellion and reinvention through music\, fashion\, and community. \nAs Vietnamese refugees sought safety in the United States in the wake of the fall of Saigon\, a generation of Vietnamese teenagers and young adults struggled to adjust to a new life in America. Many of these young people in Southern California found a new life and a new identity in New Wave music\, a type of Euro Disco that became enormously popular in this community. New Wave: Rebellion and Reinvention in the Vietnamese Diaspora celebrates the rebellion\, reinvention\, and rebirth of joy in this young generation in cultural limbo. Featuring essays from prominent Vietnamese scholars\, critics\, and stars\, New Wave explores how music\, fashion\, and rebellion can be a force for healing. New Wave is a love letter to the first generation of Vietnamese punks and rebels who came of age in the 1980s.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: TICKETED - Jason Reynolds discusses Twenty-Four Seconds from Now…:A LOVE Story
DESCRIPTION:#1 New York Times bestselling author Jason Reynolds tackles it—you know…it—from the guy’s perspective in this unfiltered and undeniably sweet stream-of-consciousness story of a teen boy about to experience a huge first. \nTwenty-four months ago: Neon gets chased by a dog all around the parking lot of a church. Not his finest moment. And one he would have loved to forget if it weren’t for the dog’s owner: Aria. Dressed in sweats\, a t-shirt\, and hair in a ponytail. Aria. Way more than fine. \nTwenty-four weeks ago: Neon’s dad insists on talking to him about tenderness and intimacy. Neon and Aria are definitely in love\, and while they haven’t taken that next big step…yet\, they’ve started talking about…that. \nTwenty-four days ago: Neon’s mom finds her—gulp—bra in his room. Hey! No judging! Those hook thingies are complicated! So he’d figured he’d better practice\, what with the big day only a month away. \nTwenty-four minutes ago: Neon leaves his shift at work at his dad’s bingo hall\, making sure to bring some chicken tenders for Aria. They’re not candlelight and they definitely aren’t caviar\, but they are her favorite. \nAnd right this second? Neon is locked in Aria’s bathroom\, completely freaking out because twenty-four seconds from now he and Aria are about to…about to… Well\, they won’t do anything if he can’t get out of his own head (all the advice\, insecurities\, and what-ifs) and out of this bathroom! \nNote: the subject matter of this book contains PG-13 material and is not recommended for the youngest of readers. \n**All tickets include a signed copy of Twenty-Four Seconds From Now . . .: A LOVE Story as well as admittance to the meet and greet line for a photo with Jason!

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Dan Jones\, in conversation with Grace McKagan\, discuss Henry V
DESCRIPTION:The New York Times bestselling author returns with a biography examining the dramatic life and unparalleled leadership of England’s greatest medieval king. \n  \nIn 1413\, when Henry V ascended to the English throne\, his kingdom was hopelessly torn apart by political faction and partisanship. Public finances and law and order were in a state of crisis. Pirates tormented the coast; plots\, conspiracies\, and heresy threatened society. The lingering effects of the worst pandemic in human history continued to menace daily life. And then\, in less than ten years\, Henry turns it all around. \nBy common consensus in his day\, and for hundreds of years afterward\, Henry was the greatest medieval king that ever lived. Through skillful leadership\, unwavering vision\, and seemingly sheer force of personality\, he managed to catapult his realm into the greatest triumphs it has ever achieved: he united the political community behind the crown\, renewed the justice system\, and revived England’s maritime dominance. And then there are his military achievements in France\, most notably the resounding\, against-the-odds victory at Agincourt. He was tough\, lucky\, intelligent\, farsighted\, and cultured. But he was also\, at times\, cold\, callous\, violent\, by instinct a traditionalist\, and even a reactionary. A historical titan\, his legacy over the years has become a complicated one. \nAs an exceptional leader\, Henry V transcends the Middle Ages which produced him\, and his life story has much to teach us today. Drawing on the latest scholarship and writing with his characteristic wit and style\, Dan Jones examines the king’s legendary life—and he puts Henry’s claim to greatness very vigorously to the test.
