SUMMARY:Rainbow Rowell
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a very special evening with the author of Eleanor & Park!\n\n\nBestselling author Rainbow Rowell returns with a breathtakingly honest novel about a woman who lost everything — and isn’t sure she wants it back. Everybody knows that Cherry’s husband\, Tom\, is in Hollywood making a movie… almost nobody knows that he isn’t coming home. Tom is the creator of Thursday — a semi-autobiographical webcomic that’s become an international phenomenon. Semi-autobiographical. That means there’s a character in this movie based on Cherry… “Baby.” Wide-hipped\, heavy-chested\, double-chinned Baby. Cherry never wanted this. No fat girl wants to see herself caricatured on the page — let alone on the big screen. But there’s no getting away from it. Baby looks so much like Cherry that strangers recognize her at the grocery store. While her soon-to-be ex-husband is in Los Angeles getting rich and famous and being the Internet’s latest boyfriend\, Cherry is stuck in Omaha taking care of the dog he always wanted and the house they were going to raise a family in… and wondering who she’s supposed to be without him. Cherry had promised to love Tom through thick and thin. She’d meant it. One night\, Cherry decides to leave all her problems\, including Tom’s overgrown puppy\, at home. She ventures out to see her favorite band play her favorite album… and someone recognizes her from across the room. Russ Sutton knew Cherry when she was a young art student with a fondness for pin-up dresses and patent leather heels. Before Tom. Russ knows Cherry. He likes Cherry. And best of all… he’s never heard of Thursday. Tender\, funny\, and utterly human\, Cherry Baby (William Morrow) is Rainbow Rowell’s richest\, most surprising — sexiest — novel yet. \nPlease note: This is a ticketed event. Tickets include admission\, as well as one hardcover copy of Cherry Baby. Books distributed at event. \nDisclaimer: If you are not able to make it to the event after the refund period has lapsed\, your book will be held at the venue for 14 days following the event unless you reach out to our Customer Contact Center (help@powells.com). After that time the book is considered abandoned and we will restock the product to our inventory.

SUMMARY:Suzanne Simard in Conversation With Ferris Jabr
DESCRIPTION:Join us on April 1 as we welcome forestry scientist and bestselling author Suzanne Simard!\n\n\nWith her bestselling book Finding the Mother Tree\, forest ecologist Suzanne Simard introduced the world to the profound intelligence and interconnectedness of trees. Now\, with When the Forest Breathes (Knopf)\, she uncovers the ways that nature’s deep-rooted cycles of renewal can ensure the longevity of threatened ecosystems. Raised in a family of loggers committed to sensible forest stewardship\, Simard has watched as timber companies leave forests at higher risk for wildfires\, water crises\, and plant and animal extinction. But her research has the potential to chart a new course. The forest\, she reveals\, is a symphony of finely honed cycles of regeneration — from mushrooms breaking down logs to dying elder trees passing their genetic knowledge to younger ones — that hold the key to protecting our forests. Working closely with local Indigenous communities\, whose models of responsible forestry have been largely dismissed\, Simard examines how human interventions — particularly destruction of the overstory’s mother trees — endanger new growth and longevity. If we can honor the tools that trees have honed for sharing intergenerational wisdom\, she argues\, we can protect these sacred places for many years to come. As she considers how older living things facilitate the conditions for new growth to flourish\, Simard faces parallel rhythms of loss and regeneration in her own life\, watching her two daughters grow into adults and savoring her final days with her ailing mother. Animated by wonder for our forests and the intricate practices of caretaking that have long sustained them\, When the Forest Breathes is a vital reminder of all the natural world has to teach us about adaptability\, resilience\, and community. Simard will be joined in conversation by Ferris Jabr\, author of Becoming Earth: A Journey Through the Hidden Wonders That Bring Our Planet to Life. \nPlease note: This is a ticketed event. Tickets include admission\, as well as one hardcover copy of When the Forest Breathes. Books distributed at event.

SUMMARY:Dr. Jennifer Lincoln in Conversation With Dr. Mary Fariba Afsari
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special event with Dr. Jennifer Lincoln & Dr. Mary Fariba Afsari!\n\n\nBirth is a transformative\, remarkable process\, but it can also be incredibly daunting and traumatic — especially if you don’t have the medically sound information you need to advocate for yourself. With misinformation rampant on social media and a dearth of trusted medical resources on the birth process\, pregnant people feel left behind in a system that is failing them. Thirty-six percent of counties in America are labeled “maternity care deserts\,” where there is no or limited access to obstetric care — and it’s only getting worse. We need a concise and comprehensive primer on the birth experience\, whether that means a low-intervention birth or a complicated emergency C-section. In The Birth Book (Rodale)\, OB-GYN hospitalist and educator Dr. Jennifer Lincoln — author of Let’s Talk About Down There — delivers exactly that. Dr. Lincoln answers all your questions\, big and small\, about labor and delivery\, providing crucial insight and understanding. Questions like: What is “normal” labor? What can I say no to? What are my options if baby is breech? How long does an induction take? And many\, many more. Backed by research and personal experience and including enlightening illustrations\, The Birth Book gives you agency over your pregnancy and birth\, along with context for the many choices you’ll need to make. With Dr. Lincoln’s help\, readers will have an evidence-based resource at their fingertips for a better\, safer\, more informed birth. Dr. Lincoln will be joined in conversation by Dr. Mary Fariba Afsari\, board-certified OB/GYN and author of the forthcoming new book\, Labor: One Woman’s Work. \nPlease note: This is a ticketed event. Tickets include admission\, as well as one paperback copy of The Birth Book. Books distributed at event. \nDisclaimer: If you are not able to make it to the event after the refund period has lapsed\, your book will be held at the venue for 14 days following the event unless you reach out to our Customer Contact Center (help@powells.com).

SUMMARY:Tayari Jones in Conversation With Kiley Reid
DESCRIPTION:Join us on March 24th as we welcome An American Marriage author Tayari Jones!\n\n\nTayari Jones — bestselling\, award-winning author of An American Marriage — has written an unforgettable new novel that sparkles with wit and intelligence and deep feeling about two lifelong friends whose worlds converge after many years apart in the face of a devastating tragedy. Vernice and Annie\, two motherless daughters raised in Honeysuckle\, Louisiana\, have been best friends and neighbors since earliest childhood but are fated to live starkly different lives. Raised by a fierce aunt determined to give her a stable home in the wake of her mother’s death\, Vernice leaves Honeysuckle at eighteen for Spelman College\, where she joins a sisterhood of powerfully connected Black women and discovers a world of affluence\, manners\, aspiration\, and inequality. Annie\, abandoned by her mother as a child and fixated on the idea of finding her and filling the bottomless hole left by her absence\, sets off on a journey that will take her into a world of peril and adversity\, as well as love and adventure\, culminating in a battle for her life. A novel about mothers and daughters\, friendship and sisterhood\, and the complexities of being a woman in the American South\, Kin (Knopf) is an exuberant\, emotionally rich\, unforgettable work from one of the brightest and most irresistible voices in contemporary fiction.

SUMMARY:Liz Tomforde in Conversation With Sara Cate
DESCRIPTION:Join us on March 10th as we welcome Liz Tomforde in conversation with Sara Cate!\n\n\nAs the first female team owner in Major League Baseball\, Reese Remington has spent her entire life preparing for this role. With a sharp mind and years of experience working behind the scenes\, she’s more than qualified. But the public only sees a woman in a man’s world — not the person who’s earned their place on the field. Under constant scrutiny and pressure to prove herself\, Reese can’t afford distractions\, especially those that come in the form of the team’s tempting field manager who questions her every decision. Emmett Montgomery is a former All-Star turned coach who treats his players like family and the field like home. After years of running the team his way\, the last thing he wants is a new boss\, let alone one who seems ice-cold and laser-focused on business. But forced to spend long hours — and too many away games — side by side\, he begins to see the fire beneath Reese’s control\, the heart behind her ambition\, and the unwavering determination to prove herself. When heated banter turns into sizzling chemistry\, professional boundaries blur\, and the spark between them becomes impossible to resist. But Reese is constantly reminded of how many people are waiting for her to fail\, and the safest move is to keep Emmett at arm’s length — for the sake of the team\, the season\, and her career. But keeping their distance is one game neither of them can seem to win. In Her Own League (Entangled: Amara) is the new sports romance from Liz Tomforde\, author of the Windy City series. Tomforde will be joined in conversation by Sara Cate\, author of the Salacious Players’ Club series. \nPlease note: This is a ticketed event.

SUMMARY:Heather Fawcett in Conversation With Laini Taylor
DESCRIPTION:Join us on March 2nd as we welcome Heather Fawcett in conversation with Laini Taylor!\n\n\nA woman who runs a cat rescue in 1920s Montréal turns to a grouchy but charming magician to help save her shelter in Agnes Aubert’s Mystical Cat Shelter (Del Rey)\, the heartwarming cozy fantasy from Heather Fawcett\, bestselling author of the Emily Wilde series. Agnes Aubert leads a meticulously organized life\, and she likes it that way. As the proudly type-A manager of a cat rescue charity\, she has devoted her life to finding forever homes for stray cats. Now it’s the shelter that needs a new home. And the only landlord who will rent a space to a cat rescue is a mysterious man called Havelock — who also happens to be the world’s most infamous magician\, running an illegal magic shop out of his basement. Havelock is cantankerous and eccentric\, but not not handsome\, and no\, Agnes absolutely does not feel anything but disdain for him. After all\, rumors swirl about his shadowy past — including whispers that his dark magic once almost brought about the apocalypse. Then one day a glamorous magician comes looking for Havelock\, putting the magic shop — and the cat shelter — in jeopardy. To save the shelter\, Agnes will have to team up with the magician who nearly ended the world… and may now be trying to steal her heart. Havelock is everything Agnes thinks she doesn’t need in her life: chaos\, mischief\, and a little too much adventure. But as she gets to know him\, she discovers that he’s more than the dark magician of legend\, and that she may be ready for a little intrigue — and romance — in her life. After all\, second chances aren’t just for rescue cats. Fawcett will be joined in conversation by Laini Taylor\, author of the Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy. \nPlease note: This is a ticketed event.

SUMMARY:Lauren Groff in Conversation With Lydia Kiesling
DESCRIPTION:Join us on March 2nd as we welcome three-time National Book Award finalist Lauren Groff in conversation with Lydia Kiesling!\n\n\nBrawler (Riverhead) is a stunning\, fierce collection from three-time National Book Award finalist Lauren Groff\, a master of the short story and one of the most important writers of our time. Read alone\, each story in Groff’s electric new collection is an individual triumph\, bold\, agile\, and packed with power. Read together\, they hum in exhilarating resonance. Ranging from the 1950s to the present day and moving across age\, class\, and region — from New England to Florida to California — these nine stories reflect and expand upon a shared theme: the ceaseless battle between humans’ dark and light angels. “In every human there is both an animal and a god wrestling unto death\,” one character tells us. Among those we see caught in this match are a young woman suddenly responsible for her disabled sibling\, a hot-tempered high school swimmer in need of an adult\, a mother blinded by the loss of her family\, and a banking scion endowed with a different kind of inheritance. Motivated by love\, impeded by the double edges of other people’s good intentions\, they try to do the right thing for as long as they can. Precise\, surprising\, and provocative\, anchored by profound insight into human nature\, Brawler reveals the repeated\, sometimes heartbreaking turning points between love and fear\, compassion and violence\, reason and instinct\, altruism and what it takes to survive. Groff will be joined in conversation by Lydia Kiesling\, author of Mobility. \nPlease note: This is a ticketed event. Tickets include admission\, as well as one hardcover copy of Brawler. Books distributed at event. \nDisclaimer: If you are not able to make it to the event after the refund period has lapsed\, your book will be held at the venue for 14 days following the event unless you reach out to our Customer Contact Center (help@powells.com).
