I’m so excited for the launch week of my Austen retelling Pride and Preston Lin , starting Tuesday, March 19, 2024, and I hope you will join me in person at a bookstore event to celebrate. I love meeting readers, doing readings, answering questions! Delightful. So far there are three bookstore events scheduled, one in Seattle, one in Palo Alto, and one in Los Angeles (Culver City). Two do ask for reservations, so please click the links to get the exact details!

• Tuesday, March 19 at 7pm. Third Place Books, Seward Park location. Third Place has three locations, so don’t make the mistake of showing up at the wrong one! Third Place does not require purchasing the book, but they do ask you to buy a free ticket, so they can plan numbers. If you have paper copies of any of my other books, I would be happy to sign those too for you, but I think they’ll only have Pride and Preston Lin in stock.
• Wednesday, March 20 at 7pm. Books Inc., Palo Alto Town & Country location. Join Abigail Hing Wen (Loveboat Taipei) and me for book talk and book fun, directly across from the Campus Where It Happens. Yessiree, you can almost see Lissie driving by or Preston coming from a workout at the Avery Aquatic Center. No reservations necessary in Palo Alto.
• Friday, March 22 at 7pm. The Ripped Bodice, Culver City location. Haha–the other Ripped Bodice location is in Brooklyn, clear across the country, so really be sure you don’t show up at the wrong one! This famous romance bookstore does require the purchase of a ticket (the cost of the book), and reservations end March 17, so sign up now! Fellow author Suzanne Park (The Do-Over) will chat with me about life, the universe and everything.

It’s been several years since I’ve done a bookstore event, so I’m super excited for these, though a little nervous about the L.A. one because I don’t know anyone in L.A! Please do feel free to share this with friends and family and book clubs. The more, the merrier.
