SUMMARY:Laura Dave reads from her latest Eight Hundred Grapes
DESCRIPTION:A breakout novel from an author who “positively shines with wisdom and intelligence” (Jonathan Tropper\, This Is Where I leave You). “Laura Dave writes with humor and insight about relationships in all their complexity\, whether she’s describing siblings or fiancés or a couple long-married. Eight Hundred Grapes is a captivating story about the power of family\, the limitations of love\, and what becomes of a life’s work” (J. Courtney Sullivan\, Maine). \nThere are secrets you share\, and secrets you hide… \nGrowing up on her family’s Sonoma vineyard\, Georgia Ford learned some important secrets. The secret number of grapes it takes to make a bottle of wine: eight hundred. The secret ingredient in her mother’s lasagna: chocolate. The secret behind ending a fight: hold hands. \nBut just a week before her wedding\, thirty-year-old Georgia discovers her beloved fiancé has been keeping a secret so explosive\, it will change their lives forever. \nGeorgia does what she’s always done: she returns to the family vineyard\, expecting the comfort of her long-married parents\, and her brothers\, and everything familiar. But it turns out her fiancé is not the only one who’s been keeping secrets…

SUMMARY:Wednesday Martin reads from her latest Primates of Park Avenue
DESCRIPTION:Please note that we do not reserve seats. Rather\, seating is on a first-come\, first serve basis. We recommend arriving early. \n Thank you! \n\nEvery city has its Upper East Side\, and in Wednesday’s memoir\, readers everywhere will recognize the strange cultural codes of powerful social hierarchies and the compelling desire to climb them. They will also see that Upper East Side mothers want the same things for their children that all mothers want—safety\, happiness\, and success—and not even sky-high penthouses and chauffeured SUVs can protect this ecologically released tribe from the universal experiences of anxiety and loss. When Wednesday’s life turns upside down\, she learns how deep the bonds of female friendship really are. \nIntelligent\, funny\, and heartfelt\, Primates of Park Avenue lifts a veil on a secret\, elite world within a world—the exotic\, fascinating\, and strangely familiar culture of privileged Manhattan motherhood.

SUMMARY:Kate White reads from her latest The Wrong Man
DESCRIPTION:New York Times bestselling author of Eyes on You and The Sixes delivers a compelling thriller of mistaken identity and psychological suspense about an accomplished career woman who thinks she’s met the man of her dreams—but instead he turns out to be her worst nightmare. Bold and adventurous in her work as one of Manhattan’s hottest interior decorators\, Kit Finn couldn’t be tamer in her personal life. So\, while on vacation in the Florida Keys\, Kit resolves to do something risky for once. Flirting with Matt Healy—the rugged stranger she literally bumps into at her hotel—is one thing. Going back to his room after their date is another. Instead\, Matt offers to cook her dinner when they’re both back in the city. But when Kit arrives at his luxury apartment ready for the date of a lifetime\, who is the man who opens the door? Kit’s usually so good at reading people. How could she have been taken in by the deceptions of a con man? And why has he targeted her? Piece by piece\, Kit realizes that this treachery goes a lot deeper\, and gets a lot deadlier. Now the only way out is to expose the vicious puppet master who’s turned her life upside-down. \nAdrenaline-charged and filled with harrowing twists at every turn\, The Wrong Man will leave readers guessing until the final page.
