SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Kathleen Glasgow\, in conversation with Alexa Donne\, discuss The Glass Girl
DESCRIPTION:From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Girl in Pieces comes a raw\, heart-wrenching novel about a teenager facing down her struggles with alcohol–and the journey she must take to heal. \nEveryone in fifteen-year-old Bella’s life needs something from her. Her mom needs her to help around the house\, her dad needs her to not make waves\, and her ex needs her not to be so much. The only person who never needed anything from her was her grandmother–and now she’s dead. \nThere’s only one thing that dulls the pressure: alcohol. Vodka\, beer\, peppermint schnapps–alcohol smooths the sharp edges of Bella’s life. And what’s the big deal? Everyone drinks. Besides\, Bella can stop whenever she wants. But after she gets blackout drunk at a Thanksgiving party and wakes up in the hospital\, it’s time to face reality. And for Bella\, reality means rehab. \nGorgeously written and deeply compassionate\, Kathleen Glasgow’s The Glass Girl is a candid exploration of the forces pushing young women toward addiction–and what it takes to help them get better.

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.

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: 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.
