SUMMARY:Vroman's: Local Author Day featuring Rings of Kindness
DESCRIPTION:Rings of Kindness is a compilation of 85 true stories of kindness received\, written by 80 plus authors\, 20 of whom reside in the Los Angeles area. The book was created and edited by Matthew J. Goldberg\, an inspirational humorist from the Philadelphia area\, and designed to spread optimism\, love and kindness via our stories of kindness. The contributing writers comprise a wide variety of backgrounds and range from high school students to senior citizens\, and geographically from Nova Scotia\, Canada to Queensland\, Australia.  All have stories that are highly relatable. \nThe contributors reading from their work this evening are Cathy Dreyfuss\, Boliang (Michael) Wang\, Lauri Fraser\, and Harri James. \nParticipant Bios  \nCathy Dreyfuss was born in New York\, raised in Los Angeles\, and has lived on Venice Beach for the last 45 years. She started out as a pianist\, cartoonist and hippie traveler\, then became an attorney and social justice activist\, dabbling in singing\, guitar playing and zydeco dancing in her spare time.  She represented indigent defendants and immigrants in criminal courts from 1984 to 2022\, when she decided to leave lawyering for a more creative life. She has been writing personal stories for several years and is currently working on a memoir about her travels in the 1970’s. \nBoliang (Michael) Wang is an award-winning student filmmaker and a published author. After acquiring his B.A. in screenwriting\, Michael has worked on productions produced by major Hollywood production companies such as Fox Sony\, and Paramount. Michael\, an international student\, is currently pursuing his Master’s in Film & TV Production at Loyola Marymount University. \nLauri Fraser is an American voice actress who has spent more than 20 years lending her talents to animation projects spanning film\, TV series\, commercials and video games.  Lauri’s vocal variations can be heard as: Marie Antoinette (“Peabody and Sherman); Mrs. Olson (“Olaf’s Frozen Adventure\,”); both Rocky and Natasha (“The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle’); and “Rocky J. Squirrel” (Geico Insurance).  When not in a recording booth\, Lauri can be found performing stories at venues in and around Hollywood. She produced her own acclaimed live storytelling series and podcast\, “I Love A Good Story\,” for eleven years.  But she’s most proud of her performance as herself on the mega-hit ABC television series “Shark Tank.”  Lauri and her sister pitched their father’s invention\, Hugo’s Amazing Tape–and got a deal! \nHarri James is a filmmaker\, storyteller\, and 2e education advocate.  She recently had a story published in the anthology\, “Rings of Kindness.”  Combining filmmaking with her passion for gifted and twice exceptional (2e) education\, she directed her first documentary\, “O’Kelley Legends:  2e Behind the Scenes.”  When she’s not writing\, Harri speaks at educational conferences and college campuses on parent advocacy.

SUMMARY:Vroman's: Marcie Bianco Discusses Breaking Free
DESCRIPTION:For more than a century\, women have fought for equality. Yet\, time and again\, their battles have fallen short. Even so-called constitutionally-protected equal rights can be withdrawn by judges and undermined by legislators. But the greater problem is in the notion of equality itself. \nIn Breaking Free\, culture writer Marcie Bianco persuasively argues that the very concept of equality is a fallacy\, an illusory goal that cannot address historic forms of discrimination and oppression. Starting with the campaign for women’s suffrage and traveling through modern history\, she shows us how equality has been designed to keep women and disenfranchised communities chasing an unobtainable goal. Conditioned for generations to want equality\, it has become an insidious mindset locking us into the gender binary and reductive identity politics. Bianco calls upon a long-overlooked lineage to argue that only freedom can liberate feminism from these constraints and proposes three freedom practices for women to reclaim their bodily autonomy and power. \nWhat happens if we free ourselves of equality? Controversial and thrilling\, Breaking Free guides readers toward new hope for the future of the feminist movement.

SUMMARY:Vroman's: Denene Miller discusses One Blood
DESCRIPTION:Join New York Times bestselling author Denene Millner as she explores the lives of three generations of women tied together by love\, hope\, dreams\, ambition…and family secrets in this epic novel. \nMeet Grace: raised by her beloved grandmother in tension-filled\, post-segregation Virginia\, Grace is barely a teenager when she loses her grandmother. Shellshocked\, she is shipped up North to live with her formidably ambitious Aunt Hattie―a woman who firmly left behind her Southern roots in pursuit of upward mobility. Feeling like a fish out of water in the high society world filled with fancy teas and coveted debutante balls\, Grace’s only place of comfort is with the smart\, handsome son of one of the society’s grand dames. \nMeet Delores: beautiful\, intelligent and fierce\, Delores a.k.a. Lolo has never had it easy. Once she makes it north\, she puts aside her dream of being a model to do what she has to do to survive as a woman with little money and no mooring: get married and have a family of her own. When secrets start to spill out and she and her family slowly begin to unravel\, Lolo is willing to do whatever it takes to keep her dream intact and those she loves together. \nMeet Rae: when Lolo’s headstrong daughter\, Rae discovers that she is adopted\, it’s just one secret among others that her family is keeping. When Rae finds out that she’s about to become a mother herself\, she knows that there is an important reckoning that must be faced about herself and her two mothers. \nPotent\, poetic\, powerful\, told with deep love\, and spanning from the Great Migration to the civil unrest of the 1960s to the quest for women’s equality in early 2000s\, Denene Millner’s beautifully wrought novel explores three women’s intimate\, and often complicated\, struggle with what it truly means to be to be family.

SUMMARY:Vroman's: Cassandra Clare\, in conversation with Kiersten White\, discussing Sword Catcher
DESCRIPTION:Two outcasts find themselves caught in a web of forbidden love\, dangerous magic\, and dark secrets that could change the world forever in the start of a riveting epic fantasy series from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Shadowhunter Chronicles. \nIn the vibrant city-state of Castellane\, the richest of nobles and the most debauched of criminals have one thing in common: the constant search for wealth\, power\, and the next hedonistic thrill. \nKel is an orphan\, stolen from the life he knew to become the Sword Catcher–the body double of a royal heir\, Prince Conor Aurelian. He has been raised alongside the prince\, trained in every aspect of combat and statecraft. He and Conor are as close as brothers\, but Kel knows that his destiny is to die for Conor. No other future is possible. \nLin Caster is one of the Ashkar\, a small community whose members still possess magical abilities. By law\, they must live behind walls within the city\, but Lin\, a physician\, ventures out to tend to the sick and dying of Castellane. Despite her skills\, she cannot heal her best friend without access to forbidden knowledge. \nAfter a failed assassination attempt brings Lin and Kel together\, they are drawn into the web of the mysterious Ragpicker King\, the criminal ruler of Castellane’s underworld. He offers them each what they want most; but as they descend into his world of intrigue and shadow\, they discover a conspiracy of corruption that reaches from the darkest gutters of Castellane to the highest tower of its palaces. As long-kept secrets begin to unravel\, they must ask themselves: Is knowledge worth the price of betrayal? Can forbidden love bring down a kingdom? And will their discoveries plunge their nation into war–and the world into chaos?
