Author of the wildly popular young adult series Pendragon D. J. MacHale will be visiting us to sign copies of the first book in his chilling new Morpheus Road trilogy, The Light, about a teenage boy haunted by ghosts.

Start: 7:00 pm

Please come and join us as we welcome legendary author Anna Quindlen  on Wed., April 21st at 7:00 PM to sign copies of her forthcoming novel, Every Last One.

Over the last 30 years, Anna Quindlen's work has appeared in some of America's most influential newspapers, many of its best-known magazines, and on both fiction and non-fiction bestseller lists. She is a novelist and also writes the prestigious "Last Word" column in Newsweek magazine.

In Every Last One, a breathtaking and beautiful novel, she creates an unforgettable portrait of a mother, a father, a family, and the explosive, violent consequences of what seem like inconsequential actions. Mary Beth Latham is first and foremost a mother, whose three teenaged children come first, before her career as a landscape gardener, or even her life as the wife of a doctor. Caring for her family and preserving their everyday life is paramount. And so, when one of her sons, Max, becomes depressed, Mary Beth becomes focused on him, and is blindsided by a shocking act of violence. What happens afterwards is a testament to the power of a woman's love and determination, and to the invisible line of hope and healing that connects one human being with another. Ultimately, in the hands of Anna Quindlen's mesmerizing prose, Every Last One is a novel about facing every last one of the the things we fear most, about finding ways to navigate a road we never intended to travel, to live a life we never dreamed we'd have to live but must be brave enough to try.
