SUMMARY:Author Elena Armas in Conversation with Author Lauren Billings
DESCRIPTION:Coronado Public Library\, in partnership with Warwick’s bookstore\, welcomes Elena Armas\, author of The American Roommate Experience\, in conversation with Lauren Billings\, who co-writes young-adult and adult novels with a friend under the pseudonym Christina Lauren. Armas is kicking off her international tour with this event. \nThis event is free and first-come\, first-served. A limited number of premium-view reserved seats are available for those who pre-order a copy of the book by contacting Warwick’s via https://www.warwicks.com/armas-2022-reserved-seat or calling the store at 858-454-0347. One reserved seat per book. \nAbout The American Roommate Experience: \nRosie Graham has a problem. A few\, actually. She just quit her well-paid job to focus on her secret career as a romance writer. She hasn’t told her family and now has terrible writer’s block. Then\, the ceiling of her New York apartment literally crumbles on her. Luckily she has her best friend Lina’s spare key while she’s out of town. But Rosie doesn’t know that Lina has already lent her apartment to her cousin Lucas\, who Rosie has been stalking – for lack of a better word – on Instagram for the last few months. Lucas seems intent on coming to her rescue like a Spanish knight in shining armor. Only this one strolls around the place in a towel\, has a distracting grin\, and an irresistible accent. Oh\, and he cooks. \nLucas offers to let Rosie stay with him\, at least until she can find some affordable temporary housing. And then he proposes an outrageous experiment to bring back her literary muse and meet her deadline: He’ll take her on a series of experimental dates meant to jump-start her romantic inspiration. Rosie has nothing to lose. Her silly\, online crush is totally under control – but Lucas’s time in New York has an expiration date\, and six weeks may not be enough\, for either her or her deadline.

SUMMARY:Spoilers Book Club: "The Pursuit of Happyness" by Chris Gardner
DESCRIPTION:The Spoilers Book Club reads books that have been turned into movies. We read the book and get together to watch the film. We compare the two and discuss what we did and didn’t like. \nEvent Details\n\nAt the age of twenty\, Milwaukee native Chris Gardner\, just out of the Navy\, arrived in San Francisco to pursue a promising career in medicine. Considered a prodigy in scientific research\, he surprised everyone and himself by setting his sights on the competitive world of high finance. Yet no sooner had he landed an entry-level position at a prestigious firm than Gardner found himself caught in a web of incredibly challenging circumstances that left him as part of the city’s working homeless and with a toddler son. Motivated by the promise he made to himself as a fatherless child to never abandon his own children\, the two spent almost a year moving among shelters\, “HO-tels\,” soup lines\, and even sleeping in the public restroom of a subway station. \nNever giving in to despair\, Gardner made an astonishing transformation from being part of the city’s invisible poor to being a powerful player in its financial district. \nMore than a memoir of Gardner’s financial success\, this is the story of a man who breaks his own family’s cycle of men abandoning their children. Mythic\, triumphant\, and unstintingly honest\, The Pursuit of Happyness conjures heroes like Horatio Alger and Antwone Fisher\, and appeals to the very essence of the American Dream.

SUMMARY:Author Craig Johnson Discusses New Novel "Hell and Back"
DESCRIPTION:Coronado Public Library\, in partnership with Warwick’s bookstore\, welcomes novelist Craig Johnson\, whose new book is Hell and Back: A Longmire Mystery. \n\nThis event is free and first-come\, first-served. A limited number of premium-view reserved seats are available for those who pre-order a copy of the book by contacting Warwick’s via https://www.warwicks.com/johnson-2022-reserved-seat or calling the store at 858-454-0347. One reserved seat per book. \nJohnson is The New York Times bestselling author of the Walt Longmire mystery novels\, which are the basis for Longmire\, the hit Netflix original drama. The books have won multiple awards: Le Prix du Polar Nouvel Observateur/Bibliobs\, the Wyoming Historical Association’s Book of the Year\, Le Prix 813\, the Western Writers of America’s Spur Award\, the Mountains & Plains Book of the Year\, the SNCF Prix de Polar\, Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year\, The Watson Award\, Library Journal‘s Best Mystery of the Year\, the Rocky\, and the Will Rogers Award for Fiction. Spirit of Steamboat was selected by the Wyoming State Library as the inaugural One Book Wyoming. Johnson lives in Ucross\, Wyoming\, population 25. \nAbout Hell and Back: \nWhat if you woke up lying in the middle of the street in the infamous town of Fort Pratt\, Montana\, where 30 young Native American boys perished in a tragic 1896 boarding school fire? What if every person you encountered in that endless night was dead? What if you were covered in blood and missing a bullet from the gun holstered on your hip? What if there was something out there in the yellowed skies — along with the deceased and the smell of ash and dust — something the Northern Cheyenne refer to as the Éveohtsé-heómese\, the Wandering Without\, the Stealer of Souls? What if the only way you know who you are is because your name is printed in the leather sweatband of your cowboy hat\, and what if it says your name is Walt Longmire — but you don’t remember him? \nIn Hell and Back\, the eighteenth installment of the Longmire series\, author Craig Johnson takes the beloved sheriff to the very limits of his sanity to do battle with the most dangerous advisory he’s ever faced — himself.

SUMMARY:Author Event with Javier Zamora
DESCRIPTION:Coronado Public Library\, in partnership with Warwick’s Bookstore\, will host Javier Zamora as he discusses and signs his new book\, Solito: A Memoir.\n\nThis event is free and first-come\, first-served. A limited number of premium-view reserved seats are available for those who pre-order a copy of the book by contacting Warwick’s via https://www.warwicks.com/event/zamora-2022 or calling the store at 858-454-0347. One reserved seat per book. \nZamora was born in El Salvador in 1990. His father fled the country when he was a year old\, and his mother when he was about to turn five. Both parents’ migrations were caused by the U.S.-funded Salvadoran Civil War. When he was nine Javier migrated through Guatemala\, Mexico\, and the Sonoran Desert. His debut poetry collection\, Unaccompanied\, explores the impact of the war and immigration on his family. Zamora has been a Stegner Fellow at Stanford and a Radcliffe Fellow at Harvard and holds fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and the Poetry Foundation. \nAbout the Book: \nTrip. My parents started using that word about a year ago: “one day\, you’ll take a trip to be with us. Like an adventure.” \nZamora’s adventure is a 3\,000-mile journey from his small town in El Salvador\, through Guatemala and Mexico\, and across the U.S. border. He will leave behind his beloved aunt and grandparents to reunite with a mother who left four years ago and a father he barely remembers. Traveling alone amid a group of strangers and a “coyote” hired to lead them to safety\, Zamora expects his trip to last two short weeks. \nAt nine years old\, all Zamora can imagine is rushing into his parents’ arms\, snuggling in bed between them\, and living under the same roof again. He cannot foresee the perilous boat trips\, relentless desert treks\, pointed guns\, arrests and deceptions that await him; nor can he know that those two weeks will expand into two life-altering months alongside fellow migrants who will come to encircle him like an unexpected family. \nA memoir as gripping as it is moving\, Solito provides an immediate and intimate account not only of a treacherous and near-impossible journey\, but also of the miraculous kindness and love delivered at the most unexpected moments. Solito is Zamora’s story\, but it’s also the story of millions of others who had no choice but to leave home. \n
