SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: TICKETED - Jess Walter\, in conversation with David Duchovny discusses & signs So Far Gone
DESCRIPTION:“A warm\, funny\, loving novel. . . . It’s an American original.”–Ann Patchett\, New York Times bestselling author of Tom Lake \n“So Far Gone is a marvel.”–Tom Perrotta\, New York Times bestselling author of The Leftovers \nFrom the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful Ruins–and in the propulsive spirit of Charles Portis’ True Grit–comes a hilarious\, empathetic\, and brilliantly provocative adventure through life in modern America\, about a reclusive journalist forced back into the world to rescue his kidnapped grandchildren. \nRhys Kinnick has gone off the grid. At Thanksgiving a few years back\, a fed-up Rhys punched his conspiracy-theorist son-in-law in the mouth\, chucked his smartphone out a car window and fled for a cabin in the woods\, with no one around except a pack of hungry raccoons. \nNow Kinnick’s old life is about to land right back on his crumbling doorstep. Can this failed husband and father\, a man with no internet and a car that barely runs\, reemerge into a broken world to track down his missing daughter and save his sweet\, precocious grandchildren from the members of a dangerous militia? \nWith the help of his caustic ex-girlfriend\, a bipolar retired detective\, and his only friend (who happens to be furious with him)\, Kinnick heads off on a wild journey through cultural lunacy and the rubble of a life he thought he’d left behind. So Far Gone is a rollicking\, razor-sharp\, and moving road trip through a fractured nation\, from a writer who has been called “a genius of the modern American moment” (Philadelphia Inquirer).

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore:  Heather Buchta discusses & signs All For the Game
DESCRIPTION:From beloved author Heather Buchta comes a juicy\, mind-twisting thriller about football\, romance\, and the cost of playing the game. \nIn Texas\, football is life. \nFor Finn Geringer\, it’s a ticket to a better future. Transferring to East Pages High\, Finn hopes to secure a college scholarship and a chance to provide for his grandmother. In this town where football reigns supreme\, East Pages seems perfect. Until it’s not. \nFinn’s girlfriend\, Megan\, notices rival players absent from games. As she digs deeper\, her life becomes increasingly dangerous: Mysterious cars tail her\, strangers issue threats\, and she’s sure someone’s been in her bedroom. Is it her imagination\, or is East Pages hiding a dark secret? \nMeanwhile\, Finn’s cousin\, Brit\, the head cheerleader\, revels in the perks of popularity and the prestige of attending a renowned sports school. But when a football player dies\, she learns that her peers are purposely keeping her in the dark. Is her popularity an illusion? \nFinn must choose between pursuing his dreams or uncovering the truth. As he\, Brit\, and Megan unravel the team’s mysteries\, they face a powerful force determined to protect the school’s legacy at all costs. From veteran author Heather Buchta comes a gripping second-guessing game of suspicion and paranoia\, romance and reputation\, and the lengths people will go to protect who–and what–they love.

SUMMARY:Vromans's Bookstore: Sachiko Kashiwaba & Avery Fischer Udagawa discuss & sign The Village Beyond the Mist
DESCRIPTION:“Kashiwaba’s novel is indeed transporting. . . . Pick up this book and be spirited away.” — Gregory Maguire\, The New York Times \nFrom the bestselling\, Batchelder Award-winning author and translator of Temple Alley Summer and The House of the Lost on the Cape comes the fantastic adventure that first inspired Hayao Miyazaki’s beloved film\, Spirited Away. \nLina’s father had suggested she go “someplace different” for the summer\, and she’s beginning to wish she hadn’t listened. She could be at her grandma’s house in Nagano now\, instead of trudging through a forest in search of a town that might not even exist. But when a gust of wind carries off her umbrella\, it leads Lina down a secret path between the trees to a strange and incredible world. In the hidden village of Misty Valley\, centaurs roam the cobblestone streets and gnomes visit shops stuffed with spellbooks and enchanted desserts. All magic has a dark side\, though\, and sometimes even sorcerers need a human’s helping hand. \nNow\, fifty years after its debut and decades of blockbuster success in Japan\, Sachiko Kashiwaba’s acclaimed novel is available in English and certain to delight readers of all ages. \nBios: \nSachiko Kashiwaba is a prolific writer of children’s and young adult fantasy whose career spans more than four decades. Her works have garnered the prestigious Sankei\, Shogakukan\, and Noma children’s literature awards\, and have recently been animated as the films The Wonderland and The House of the Lost on the Cape. Her novel Temple Alley Summer\, illustrated by Miho Satake and translated by Avery Fischer Udagawa\, won the American Library Association’s 2022 Mildred L. Batchelder Award. She lives in Morioka\, Iwate. \nAvery Fischer Udagawa grew up in Kansas and studied English and Asian Studies at St. Olaf College in Minnesota. She holds an MA in advanced Japanese studies from the University of Sheffield. She has studied at Nanzan University\, Nagoya\, on a Fulbright fellowship\, and at the Inter-University Center for Japanese Language Studies\, Yokohama. She writes\, translates\, and works in international education near Bangkok\, where she lives with her bicultural family.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Josh Jackson\, in conversation with Jaclyn Cosgrove\, discusses & signs The Enduring Wild: A Journey Into California's Public Lands
DESCRIPTION:A galvanizing road trip across California’s immense public wilderness from a beloved adventurer. \n“The Enduring Wild is a call to look beyond the surface\, embrace the deep connections that tie us to our public lands\, and commit to safeguarding them for future generations.” –QT Luong\, author of Treasured Lands: A Photographic Odyssey Through America’s National Parks \nIt all began with a camping trip. Outdoor enthusiast Josh Jackson had never heard of “BLM land” before a casual recommendation from a friend led him to a free campsite in the desert–and the revelation that over 15 million acres of land in California are owned collectively by the people. In The Enduring Wild\, he takes us on a road trip spanning thousands of miles\, crisscrossing the Golden State to seek out every parcel of public wilderness therein belonging to the federal Bureau of Land Management\, from the Pacific shores of the King Range down to the Mojave Desert. Over mountains\, across prairies\, and through sagebrush\, Jackson unravels the stories of these lands. He tells of the Indigenous peoples who have called them home for millennia\, of the extractivist threats that imperil them today\, and of the grassroots organizers and political champions who have rallied to their common defense to uphold the radical mandate to protect these natural treasures for generations to come. For the adventurers\, campers\, explorers\, map readers\, road trippers\, nature enthusiasts\, and public lands lovers out there\, The Enduring Wild is an indispensable invitation to know these places more deeply and to embrace our common inheritance. Illustrations by Rebekah Nolan.

For the adventurers\, campers\, explorers\, map readers\, road trippers\, nature enthusiasts\, and public lands lovers out there\, The Enduring Wild is an indispensable invitation to know these places more deeply and to embrace our common inheritance. Illustrations by Rebekah Nolan.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Jen Pastiloff\, in conversation with Henry Czerny\, discusses & signs Proof of Life: Let Go\, Let Love\, and Stop Looking for Permission to Live Your Life
DESCRIPTION:An urgent rallying cry to stop holding back and start living life on your terms. \nJen Pastiloff convinced herself My life is fine and fine’s enough\, until the whisper that something was missing turned full-on scream. \nThis is Pastiloff’s account of how she reclaimed her voice and desire by radically changing her life. She did this despite believing that change equaled death ever since her beloved father died when she was eight. (Much to her shock\, change did not equal death.) She shows us it is never too late to begin again\, or to let go of stories like: I don’t deserve this; I don’t get to be happy; no one will love me; I’m too old\, to name a few. \nThrough this book\, you’ll quiet your Inner Asshole\, participate in the cathartic process of Shame Loss\, ignore the Imaginary Time Gods\, use creativity as a portal into healing and connection\, and become your own permission slip. Complete with takeaways in Jen’s signature style\, creativity prompts\, and poetry\, Proof of Life is funny\, inspiring\, and full of love. This book is a reminder that your birthright is not stress or shame and that you don’t have to show proof that you are worthy or deserving. You are your own proof of life.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Dr. Julie Taylor discusses & signs The Hormone Manual
DESCRIPTION:From hormone specialist and functional medicine doctor\, Dr. Julie Taylor\, comes a paradigm-shifting guidebook to help women optimize their hormones\, starting from birth\, through every stage of life\, so they can reverse their symptoms\, prevent disease\, and thrive as they age. \nHave the vibrant life you’ve always wanted. No matter your age or stage. \nWe have a manual for everything from our smartphones to our printers to our refrigerators. But where is the manual for our most important asset? \nWhere is the manual for you? \nWe’re all different\, and there’s no one-size-fits-all rulebook. But there are universal truths that apply to all of us at every stage. Dr. Julie Taylor understands this. After being disillusioned by the lack of solutions within conventional medicine–a system aimed at treating not preventing diseases and disorders–she walked away from her medical residency in search of something better. A way to stop diseases before they even start. \nAnd now\, Dr. Taylor has created a Manual just for women. One where she starts at the very beginning and shares paradigm-shifting advice that details a woman’s needs from birth through her senior years. Dr. Julie believes that when a person’s hormones are balanced\, everything changes for the better. And she has proof: from physical to mental to relational transformations–Dr. Taylor has seen it all. \nThis Manual filled with carefully crafted\, age-specific guidance was written so that you can see yourself reflected in its pages. No matter what age or stage you’re in\, know that you do not have to suffer with symptoms and sickness. The buck stops with you. Your body is your airplane\, and you are the pilot. You can function at your best and feel better than ever. Dr. Taylor is providing you with the Manual. \nNow go live!

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Sarah James discusses  Last Stop Union Station
DESCRIPTION:Murder\, movie stars\, and mystery await those who climb aboard this cross-country train\, inspired by the real-life history of the Hollywood Victory Caravan \nHollywood\, 1942. Jacqueline Love’s acting career is flailing. Suddenly on the wrong side of 40\, parts are drying up\, directors are calling her “difficult\,” and Humphrey Bogart has definitely stopped taking her calls. Desperate to cling to stardom\, Jackie takes the only gig that will have her: the Hollywood Victory Caravan\, a train full of movie stars crossing the country to fundraise for the war effort. Jackie wouldn’t call herself patriotic\, but with her life’s work on the line\, she’ll do anything. \nWhen a fellow star dies on board\, everyone assumes the death was a tragic accident-but Jackie isn’t so sure. Stuck in Chicago’s Union Station\, Jackie enlists the help of Grace\, one of the few women in the police force\, to investigate. But “difficult” outside of a movie set is dangerous\, and when the pair fall into a homegrown Nazi scheme\, Jackie must ask herself what’s more important: her career\, or her country?

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Meg Waite Clayton discusses and signs Typewriter Beach
DESCRIPTION:Set in Carmel-by-the-Sea and Hollywood\, Typewriter Beach is an unforgettable story of the unlikely friendship between an Oscar-nominated screenwriter and a young actress hoping to be Alfred Hitchcock’s new star. \n1957. Isabella Giori is ten months into a standard seven-year studio contract when she auditions with Hitchcock. Just weeks later\, she is sequestered by the studio’s “fixer” in a tiny Carmel cottage\, waiting and dreading. \nMeanwhile\, next door\, Léon Chazan is annoyed as hell when Iz interrupts his work on yet another screenplay he won’t be able to sell\, because he’s been blacklisted. Soon\, they’re together in his roadster\, speeding down the fog-shrouded Big Sur coast. \n2018. Twenty-six-year-old screenwriter Gemma Chazan\, in Carmel to sell her grandfather’s cottage\, finds a hidden safe full of secrets–raising questions about who the screenwriter known simply as Chazan really was\, and whether she can live up to his name. \nIn graceful prose and with an intimate understanding of human nature\, Meg Waite Clayton captures the joys and frustrations of being a writer\, being a woman\, being a star\, and being in love. Typewriter Beach is the story of two women separated by generations–a tale of ideas and ideals\, passion and persistence\, creativity\, politics\, and family. \n  \nMeg Waite Clayton is the New York Times bestselling author of eight previous novels\, including the Good Morning America Buzz Pick and New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice The Postmistress of Paris\, The Last Train to London\, and The Wednesday Sisters. Her books have been published in twenty-four languages\, and have been finalists for the Bellwether Prize (now the PEN Bellwether)\, the National Jewish Book Award\, and the Langum Prize. She also writes for major newspapers and magazines\, mentors in the OpEd Project\, and is a member of the National Book Critics Circle and the California bar. She lives in California and Connecticut.
