SUMMARY:Vroman's: Wendy Heard discusses She’s Too Pretty to Burn
DESCRIPTION:This is a virtual event and will take place on Crowdcast. Register for FREE ahead of time to save your spot and get an email reminder! Scroll down to purchase your copy of the book from Vroman’s. \nEVENT LINK: https://www.crowdcast.io/e/hf8x5iuj \nThe summer is winding down in San Diego. Veronica is bored\, caustically charismatic\, and uninspired in her photography. Nico is insatiable\, subversive\, and obsessed with chaotic performance art. They’re  artists first\, best friends second. But that was before Mick. Delicate\, lonely\, magnetic Mick: the perfect  subject\, and Veronica’s dream girl. The days are long and hot–full of adventure–and soon they are falling in love. Falling so hard\, they never imagine what comes next. One fire. Two murders. Three drowning bodies. One suspect . . . one stalker. This is a summer they won’t survive. \nInspired by The Picture of Dorian Gray\, this sexy psychological thriller explores the intersections of love\, art\, danger\, and power. (Henry Holt & Co.) \nWendy Heard is the author of two adult thrillers: The Kill Club and Hunting Annabelle\, which Kirkus Reviews praised as “a diabolically plotted creep show from a writer to watch.” She’s Too Pretty To Burn\, which Kirkus called “a wild and satisfying romp” in a starred review\, marks her YA debut. She is a member of Sisters in Crime\, International Thriller Writers\, and Mystery Writers of America\, and is a contributor at Crimereads.com and Writer’s Digest. Wendy lives in Los Angeles\, California. \nAiden Thomas is a New York Times Bestselling Author with an MFA in Creative Writing from Mills College. Originally from Oakland\, California\, they now make their home in Portland\, OR. As a queer\, trans Latinx\, Aiden advocates strongly for diverse representation in all media. Aiden’s special talents include: quoting The Office\, useless trivia\, Jenga\, finishing sentences with “is my FAVORITE”\, and killing spiders. Aiden is notorious for not being able to guess the endings of books and movies\, and organizes their bookshelves by color. Aiden’s debut novel\, Cemetery Boys is a Dia de Muertos paranormal romance about Yadriel (a gay\, trans brujo) who accidentally summons the wrong ghost (Swoon Reads/Macmillan\, September 1st\, 2020).

SUMMARY:Vroman's:  Raphael Simon (aka Pseudonymous Bosch) & Adam Gidwitz discuss The Anti-Book
DESCRIPTION:This is a virtual event and will take place on Crowdcast. Register for FREE ahead of time to save your spot and get an email reminder! Scroll down to purchase your copy of the book from Vroman’s. \nEVENT LINK: https://www.crowdcast.io/e/ztnils1y \nWith nods to The Phantom Tollbooth and Coraline\, this darkly funny fantasy is a classic-in-the-making–the story of a boy who wants the world to disappear . . . and what happens when it does. \nMickey is angry all the time: at his divorced parents\, at his sister\, and at his two new stepmoms\, both named Charlie. And so he can’t resist the ad inside his pack of gum: “Do you ever wish everyone would go away? Buy The Anti-Book! Satisfaction guaranteed.” He orders the book\, but when it arrives\, it’s blank–except for one line of instruction: To erase it\, write it. He fills the pages with all the things and people he dislikes . . . \nNext thing he knows\, he’s wandering an anti-world\, one in which everything and everyone familiar is gone. Or are they? His sister soon reappears–but she’s only four inches tall. A tiny talking house with wings looks strangely familiar\, as does the mysterious half-invisible boy who seems to think that he and Mickey are best buds. The boy persuades Mickey to go find the Bubble Gum King–the king\, who resides at the top of a mountain\, is the only one who might be able help Mickey fix the mess he’s made. \nFull of humor and surprise\, and slyly meaningful\, this is a Wizard of Oz for today’s generation–a fantastical quest for comfort and belonging that will resonate with many\, many readers.  (Dial Books) \nRaphael Simon is an author who lives in Pasadena\, CA\, with his husband and twin daughters. He is definitely not the alter ego of infamously anonymous author Pseudonymous Bosch\, writer of the New York Times bestselling Secret Series and the Bad Books. \nAdam Gidwitz is the bestselling author of A Tale Dark and Grimm\, In A Glass Grimmly\, and The Grimm Conclusion\, as well as The Empire Strikes Back: So You Want To Be  A Jedi?\, Newbery Honored novel The Inquisitor’s Tale and brand new series\, The Unicorn Rescue Society. He is also the creator of the podcast Grimm\, Grimmer\, Grimmest and The Unicorn Rescue Society Card Game.

SUMMARY:Vroman's:  Andrew Morton discusses Elizabeth & Margaret: The Intimate World of the Windsor Sisters
DESCRIPTION:This is a virtual event and will take place on Crowdcast. Register for FREE ahead of time to save your spot and get an email reminder! Scroll down to purchase your copy of the book from Vroman’s. \nEVENT LINK: https://www.crowdcast.io/e/0suj0aug  \nThey were the closest of sisters and the best of friends. But when\, in a quixotic twist of fate\, their uncle Edward Vlll decided to abdicate the throne\, the dynamic between Elizabeth and Margaret was dramatically altered. Forever more Margaret would have to curtsey to the sister she called ‘Lillibet.’ And bow to her wishes.  Elizabeth would always look upon her younger sister’s antics with a kind of stoical amusement\, but Margaret’s struggle to find a place and position inside the royal system–and her fraught relationship with its expectations–was often a source of tension. Famously\, the Queen had to inform Margaret that the Church and government would not countenance her marrying a divorcee\, Group Captain Peter Townsend\, forcing Margaret to choose between keeping her title and royal allowances or her divorcee lover. \nFrom the idyll of their cloistered early life\, through their hidden war-time lives\, into the divergent paths they took following their father’s death and Elizabeth’s ascension to the throne\, this book explores their relationship over the years. Andrew Morton’s latest biography offers unique insight into these two drastically different sisters–one resigned to duty and responsibility\, the other resistant to it–and the lasting impact they have had on the Crown\, the royal family\, and the ways it adapted to the changing mores of the 20th century.

SUMMARY:Vroman's: Robin Reul discusses Where the Road Leads Us

Scroll down to purchase your copy of the book from Vroman’s. \nEVENT LINK: https://www.crowdcast.io/e/am3184g5 \nSometimes the best path is the unexpected one. \nJack is on the verge for leaving for college\, but before he does\, he wants to track down his estranged brother\, Alex and find some closure in the wake of their father’s death. Meanwhile\, Hallie has just found out some upsetting news about a friend in Oregon\, and she has a small window to go see him before it’s too late. \nJack and Hallie are practically strangers. They shared a class together years ago and haven’t seen each other since\, though they have more in common than they’d ever imagine. And when fate puts them into the same rideshare to the bus terminal\, it kicks off an unconventional and hysterical adventure that may lead them to their own true selves…and maybe to each other. (Sourcebooks Fire) \nRobin Reul is the author of MY KIND OF CRAZY and WHERE THE ROAD LEADS US. She has been writing since she was in early elementary school\, when she used to make her own book club flyers for her classmates and then pen them original stories. Though she grew up on film sets and worked for many years in the film and television industry\, she ultimately decided to focus her attention on writing full time. She lives in Los Angeles suburbia. \nGae Polisner is a lawyer by trade\, but a writer by calling. Her books have received multiple awards including a Bank Street Best\, Pennsylvania School Library award\, multiple Nerdy Book Club awards\, and a Golden Archer\, Wisconsin’s Children’s Choice Award. Her bestselling book\, THE MEMORY OF THINGS is used in schools around the country. Gae lives on Long Island with her husband\, two musical sons\, and a suspiciously-fictional looking dog. When she isn’t writing\, you can find her in a pool or the open waters off Long Island. She has swum a 10K and holds out hope that one day her wetsuit will morph her into a superhero.–

SUMMARY:Vroman's: Chris Gardner discusses Permission to Dream
DESCRIPTION:This is a virtual event and will take place on Crowdcast. Register for FREE ahead of time to save your spot and get an email reminder! Scroll down to purchase your copy of the book from Vroman’s. \nEVENT LINKL: https://www.crowdcast.io/e/akcjsjrl \nOn a winter’s day\, Chris Gardner set off with his nine-year-old granddaughter Brooke to find the harmonica of her dreams. The search sends them North “beyond the wall” into a foreboding Chicago neighborhood and\, soon\, on a harrowing adventure that will change both of their lives–and ours. \nChris is still mourning the loss of his girlfriend to brain cancer. Her question haunts him: “Now that we know how short life can be\, what will you do with the time you have left?” After five years\, he feels an urgency–what he calls\, “Atomic Time” in which every second counts–to find an answer\, but is stuck. Even while giving Brooke permission to aspire to one day become President of the United States\, he knows it’s time to reclaim his own permission to dream. \nLost\, Chris and his granddaughter board a bus\, reminding him of earlier rides through dark times when dreams of a better life kept him alive. As the two wind through a changing cityscape\, Chris reflects on past lessons that offer powerful guidance for dreaming your way to monumental success. \nAt its heart\, this book lays out a blueprint for building a dream-come-true life–even during uncertainty. Gardner delivers the secrets to achieving a prosperous career–from a method for identifying your ultimate dream to a playbook for becoming world class at it. His tools include the “new 3 R’s”–or the Rep\, the Rap and the Rolodex–which reveal how to earn a stellar reputation\, develop a rap for marketing yourself\, and amass a Rolodex of rewarding relationships. No matter how much wealth you achieve\, Chris notes\, true success comes from enriching the lives of others–so all can still have access to the American Dream. \nToward the end\, Brooke observes that in Atomic Time it’s never too late for anyone to reinvent themselves and change their fortune. Chris\, hearing her\, realizes what his next pursuit will be–to go back to high school and give permission to dream to the next generation of problem solvers and change makers. \nA true fable\, Permission to Dream is a timeless and timely manifesto for turning dreams into action–beginning right now. (Amistad Press) \nChris Gardner is the Chief Executive of Gardner Rich & Company\, a multimillion-dollar brokerage with offices in New York\, Chicago\, and San Francisco. An avid philanthropist and motivational speaker\, Gardner is committed to many organizations—particularly those related to education—and was recently the recipient of the “Father of the Year Award” from the National Fatherhood Initiative. A Milwaukee native\, Gardner has two children and resides in Chicago and New York.
