Life is Better on the Left Coast

For anyone within driving distance of Los Angeles, on Thursday, September 9 at 7:30 -- tomorrow!!! -- be sure to check out Joshua Mohr and Grace Krilanovich reading from their new novels at Skylight Books in Los Feliz.

It's bound to be exceptional.

The event will be Grace's first reading in support of her debut novel, The Orange Eats Creeps, and sort of serve as the launch party for the book. To that end, there will be wine.

You'll also be able to say 'hey' to the newest TDR-er, Emily, who'll be introducing the reading.

Seriously good times. G-D I wish we lived on the west coast.

The People Who Watched Her Pass By is being recommended at Skylight Books by manager, Steve Salardino, who says:
"The author of the shamefully out of print History of Luminous Motion brings us his best book in 10 years with this tale of a three year old on the road. Sal is nabbed from her home by the water heater repair man and so begins her journey. She wanders through vans, laundromats, abandoned basements, the desert, effecting everyone around her while maintaining a world weary distance. Beautiful."

You can order The People Who Watched Her Pass By while supporting one of the best and coolest bookstores in 'Merica, here.

Also, Grace Krilanovich and Joshua Mohr will be reading at Skylight on September 9 at 7:30.
