SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Yxta Maya Murray discusses A History of Hazardous Objects
DESCRIPTION:Laura de León is a radar astronomer who studies Potentially Hazardous Objects (PHOs) such as threatening asteroids and comets at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasadena\, California. In Los Angeles in 2020\, several crises are coalescing. The first strain of SARS-CoV-2 triggers the lockdowns\, the city roils with protests of Derek Chauvin’s murder of George Floyd and the police killing of Breonna Taylor\, while the Bobcat Fire sweeps across the San Fernando Valley. In the midst of these emergencies\, Laura is struggling to keep her family alive. \nSimultaneously\, Laura is trying to write the history section of a Congressional report titled the National Near-Earth Object Preparedness Strategy and Action Plan. This report will advise Congress that it must develop a system to detect and deflect PHOs\, and the section Laura is working on cites several historical meteorite impacts as proof that the Earth is now undefended against a significant impact event. \nA story about family\, love\, risk\, and science\, A History of Hazardous Objects contemplates how experiencing trauma and pain may help us secure a safer and more just world.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore:  Martha Blanding\, in conversation with Tim O’Day\, discusses Groundbreaking Magic: A Black Woman’s Journey Through The Happiest Place on Earth
DESCRIPTION:An empowering and moving story of a young woman from South Central Los Angeles (Watts and Compton) who took a chance\, defied the odds and became the first-ever Black American to achieve a half-century-long career with The Walt Disney Company. \nDisneyland was groundbreaking when it opened in 1955 and continues to possess a legacy of being a trendsetter in both the world of themed\, immersive\, entertainment and workplace culture\, experiences\, and training. Although change was inevitable it didn’t always come easy. \nHere is the incredible story of a young woman from South Central Los Angeles (Watts and Compton) who took a chance\, defied the odds\, and became the first-ever Black American to achieve a half-century-long career with The Walt Disney Company. \nWhen Martha Blanding started working at Disneyland Park in 1971\, it was already a wildly successful and internationally beloved travel destination that had welcomed more than 100 million guests. This book is a personal journey through fifty years of Disneyland as told like never before . . . through the eyes and perspective of a successful Black woman who was indeed an example of Groundbreaking Magic. \nThis book tells how a twenty-year-old college student came to work in Walt Disney’s original theme park during the racially charged era of the early 1970s\, starting as the park’s first Black tour guide and eventually overseeing multi-million dollar generating merchandise-based events\, many featuring globally acclaimed artists and celebrities. Martha also had a unique vantage point as she saw how societal changes impacted and changed Disneyland while she helped make much of that change possible. \nIn addition to all the Disney pixie dust\, an incredibly loving\, resilient\, and close American family is at the heart of this book. With her bedrock parents who had joined the Great Migration out of the Deep South\, her family witnessed firsthand some of our country’s most shameful events while never faltering in their faith or pride in being Black Americans. \nPart memoir and part cultural history\, Groundbreaking Magic is sweet\, insightful\, sometimes blunt\, occasionally heartbreaking\, and often funny and surprising\, providing the first-ever account of Disney history as seen through the eyes of “Martha B.”

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Richard Walter discusses Deadpan
DESCRIPTION:Deadpan follows the misadventures of a vaguely antisemitic West Virginia Buick dealer who wakes up one day transformed into the world’s most popular Jewish comedian. Steeped in magical realism\, the narrative confronts the pivotal issues of our day: identity\, intolerance\, tribalism\, and the redemptive force of humor. \nThe story is set during the worldwide oil crises of the 1970s\, alternating among locations in West Virginia\, Las Vegas\, Washington\, Tehran\, and Sinai\, and featuring characters as diverse as Sarah Palin\, Mel Brooks\, and the Shah of Iran. This phantasmagorical tour-de-force not only constitutes a satirical takedown of antisemitism (and bigotry in general)\, it is also a dazzling display of human dignity\, resilience\, and humor.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: lana Kaplan\, in conversation with Kristin Marguerite Doidge\, discusses Nora Ephron at the Movies
DESCRIPTION:The first illustrated monograph on writer\, journalist\, and director Nora Ephron\, the visionary behind When Harry Met Sally\, Sleepless in Seattle\, and You’ve Got Mail \nNora Ephron at the Movies offers an unfiltered look at Ephron as a champion of the rom-com and as a feminist Hollywood trailblazer. It explores her life and work by pairing detailed criticism with exclusive interviews with Ephron’s key collaborators\, including Andie MacDowell and Jenn Kaytin Robinson\, to add color and nuance to her life and legacy. \nWith her singular voice\, Nora Ephron flourished as a dominant force in the entertainment industry\, focusing on the idiosyncrasies of romance that were universally relatable. \nThe women in her stories paralleled reality—the veil was lifted\, the glossy sheen removed. Her protagonists share an unwavering sense of humor about life’s mishaps\, and they never take themselves too seriously—like Julie trying to master the art of cooking lobsters in Julie & Julia\, Sally’s theatrical fake orgasm in Katz’s deli in When Harry Met Sally\, or Rachel perfecting a key lime pie only to throw it in her cheating husband’s face in Heartburn. \nThrough her keenly self-aware humor and semi-autobiographical stories\, Ephron left behind a groundbreaking legacy as a beloved journalist\, essayist\, screenwriter\, author\, producer\, director\, and feminist who delivered stories of resilience embedded in sharp wit and upper-crust landscapes. Through that lens\, she became emblematic of rom-coms\, shifting and redefining conversations around the complexities of relationships and the women who have them. \nKristin Marguerite Doidge [KRIS-TIN MARG-YOO-REET DOYJ]\, MA\, is a Los\nAngeles-based author\, journalist\, and professor. NORA EPHRON: A BIOGRAPHY\, her\ndebut nonfiction book based on her 2015 master’s thesis\, was published in 2022 by\nChicago Review Press. The book became a bestseller in Southern California and\nreceived critical praise from Kirkus Reviews\, Library Journal\, the Times Literary\nSupplement\, Booklist\, and others. It also earned a National Arts & Entertainment\nJournalism award for “Best Nonfiction Book” from the Los Angeles Press Club in 2022.
