Upcoming Author Luncheons
We are really excited about the schedule of authors we have lined up for you to lunch with starting next month.All
of the lunches are at noon. For $20 you will get a wonderful catered
lunch, a copy of the author's book and a chance to visit with some very
incredible writers.
February 8: Sarah Jio
Sarah is the author of Violets of March, a story of a mysterious diary, two romances (one old, one new), family secrets, all set on beautiful Bainbridge Island. Her newest novel (and the one I'm sure she'll be discussing) is The Bungalow which is set in the lush yet dangerous tropics of the South Seas during WWII. It follows the story of a young, sheltered nurse who slowly realizes the enigma that is the human heart. It is a gentle historical love story.
March 9: Erica Bauermeister
We are thrilled to have Erica join us. She is the author of The School of Essential Ingredient, which chronicles the lives of students at Lillian's Restaurant who meet each week seeking recipes for something beyond cooking. Joy for Beginners is her newest, the story of Kate who in celebration of cancer recovery will do the one thing that scares her the most. But she also challenges her best friends to do the thing that scares them - and she will decide what that is. (Joy for Beginners
is only available in hardcover so the luncheon price of $20 will include a copy of The School of Essential Ingredients, for $30 you will receive lunch and a copy of Joy for Beginners.)
