SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Kim Fay\, in conversation with J. Ryan Stradal\, discusses Kate & Frida: A Novel of Friendship\, Food\, and Books
DESCRIPTION:From the author of instant national bestseller Love & Saffron\, this bright and comforting novel follows the surprising friendship between two young women in 1990s Seattle and Paris\, illuminating the power of books to change our lives. \nSometimes a book can change your life…\nTwentysomething Frida Rodriguez arrives in Paris in 1991\, relishing the city’s butter-soaked cuisine and seeking her future as a war correspondent. But then she writes to a bookshop in Seattle\, and receives more than just the book she requests. A friendship begins that will redefine the person she wants to become. \nSeattle bookseller Kate Fair is transformed by Frida’s free spirit\, spurred to believe in herself as a writer\, to kiss her handsome coworker\, and to find beauty even in loss. Through the most tumultuous years of their young lives—personally and globally—Kate and Frida sustain and nourish each other as they learn the necessity of embracing joy\, especially through our darkest hours. \nThis mouthwatering oasis of a novel is a love letter to bookshops and booksellers\, to the passion we bring to life in our twenties\, and to the last precious years before the internet changed everything.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore:  Mallory O’Meara discusses Daughter of Daring: The Trick-Riding\, Train-Leaping\, Road-Racing Life of Helen Gibson\, Hollywood's First Stuntwoman
DESCRIPTION:From LA Times bestselling author Mallory O’Meara\, the story of America’s first professional stuntwoman\, Helen Gibson\, who rose to fame during a time when women ruled Hollywood. \nHelen Gibson was a woman willing to do anything to give audiences a thrill. Advertised as “The Most Daring Actress in Pictures\,” Helen emerged in the early days of the twentieth-century silent film scene as a rodeo rider\, background actor\, stunt double\, and eventually one of the era’s biggest action stars. Her exploits on motorcycles\, train cars\, and horseback were as dangerous as they were glamorous\, featured in hundreds of films and serials–yet her legacy was quickly overshadowed by the increasingly hypermasculine and male-dominated evolution of cinema in the decades that would follow her. \nAward-winning author Mallory O’Meara presents her life and career in exhilarating detail\, including: \n\nHelen’s rise to fame in The Hazards of Helen\, the longest-running serial in history\nHow Helen became the first-ever stuntwoman in American film\nThe pivotal role of Helen’s contemporaries–including female directors\, stars\, and stunt women who shaped the making of cinema as we know it.\n\nThrough the page-turning story of Helen’s pioneering legacy\, Mallory O’Meara gives readers a glimpse of the Golden Age of Hollywood that could have been: an industry where women call the shots.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore (Ticketed):  Torrey Peters discusses Stag Dance
DESCRIPTION:This is an in-store ticketed event with two ticket options: \n\nGeneral Admission to the event + 1 copy of Stag Dance which will be handed out at check-in\nGeneral Admission to the event\n\n  \nIn this collection of one novel and three stories\, bestselling author Torrey Peters’ keen eye for the rough edges of community and desire push the limits of trans writing. \nIn Stag Dance\, the titular novel\, a group of restless lumberjacks working in an illegal winter logging outfit plan a dance that some of them will volunteer to attend as women. When the broadest\, strongest\, plainest of the axmen announces his intention to dance as a woman\, he finds himself caught in a strange rivalry with a pretty young jack\, provoking a cascade of obsession\, jealousy\, and betrayal that will culminate on the big night in an astonishing vision of gender and transition. \nThree startling stories surround Stag Dance: “Infect Your Friends and Loved Ones” imagines a gender apocalypse brought about by an unstable ex-girlfriend. In “The Chaser\,” a secret romance between roommates at a Quaker boarding school brings out intrigue and cruelty. In the last story\, “The Masker\,” a party weekend on the Las Vegas strip turns dark when a young crossdresser must choose between two guides: a handsome mystery man who objectifies her in thrilling ways\, or a cynical veteran trans woman offering unglamorous sisterhood. \nAcidly funny and breathtaking in its scope\, with the inventive audacity of George Saunders or Jennifer Egan\, Stag Dance provokes\, unsettles\, and delights.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Jennifer Chen\, in conversation with Edward Underhill\, discusses Hangry Hearts
DESCRIPTION:Love\, family\, and food collide in this sparkling Romeo and Juliet-inspired romance. \nJulie Wu and Randall Hur used to be best friends. Now they only see each other on Saturdays at the Pasadena Farmers Market where their once close families are long-standing rivals. \nWhen Julie and Randall are paired with ultra-rich London Kim for a community-service school project\, they are forced to work together for the first time in years. It quickly becomes obvious that London has a major crush on Julie. But Julie can’t stop thinking about Randall. And Randall can’t stop thinking about how London is thinking about Julie. Soon\, prompted by a little jealousy and years of missing each other\, school project meetings turn into pseudo dates at their favorite Taiwanese breakfast shop and then secret kisses at the beach—far from the watchful eyes of their families. \nJust as they’re finally feeling brave enough to tell their grandmas\, the two matriarchs rehash their old fight and Julie and Randall get caught in the middle and Julie’s brother finds out they are dating. Their families are heartbroken. \nBut it’s the Year of the Dragon\, an auspicious time to resolve disagreements and start anew\, and Randall isn’t going down without fighting for what—and who—they love. Could the Lunar New Year provide not only a second chance for Randall and Julie\, but for their families as well? \nJennifer Chen’s Hangry Hearts is a funny\, big-hearted romance about friendship\, family\, and first love—and being brave enough to have it all.

SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore: Scaachi Koul\, in conversation with Franchesca Ramsey\, discusses & signs Sucker Punch: Essays
DESCRIPTION:The long-awaited follow-up from one of the most original and hilarious voices writing today. \nScaachi Koul’s first book was a collection of raw\, perceptive\, and hilarious essays reckoning with the issues of race\, body image\, love\, friendship\, and growing up the daughter of immigrants. When the time came to start writing her next book\, Scaachi assumed she’d be updating her story with essays about her elaborate four-day wedding\, settling down to domestic bliss\, and continuing her never-ending arguments with her parents. Instead\, the Covid-19 pandemic hit\, Scaachi’s marriage fell apart\, she lost her job\, and her mother was diagnosed with cancer. \nSucker Punch is about what happens when the life you thought you’d be living radically changes course\, everything you thought you knew about the world and yourself has tilted on its axis\, and you have to start forging a new path forward. Scaachi employs her biting wit to interrogate her previous belief that fighting is the most effective tool for progress. She examines the fights she’s had–with her parents\, her ex-husband\, her friends\, online strangers\, and herself–all in an attempt to understand when a fight is worth having\, and when it’s better to walk away.
