SUMMARY:The Unwritten Rules of Magic: Author Event with Harper Ross (in-person)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an in-person event with Harper Ross to celebrate the release of her new book\, The Unwritten Rules of Magic.  \nA spellbinding novel that blends magic and memory in an unforgettable journey through love\, grief\, and the cost of perfection across three generations of women. \nFor fans of The Midnight Library and In Five Years\, The Unwritten Rules of Magic is a spellbinding novel that blends magic and memory in an unforgettable journey through love\, grief\, and the hidden cost of perfection across three generations of women.   \nEmerson Clarke can’t remember a time when she felt in control. Her father―a celebrated author―was a chaotic force until he got Alzheimer’s. Her mother turned to gin. And recently\, her teen daughter has shut her out without explanation. If only she could arrange reality the same way she controls the stories she ghostwrites\, life could be perfect. \nOr so she thinks. \nAfter her father’s funeral\, Emerson steals his vintage typewriter―the one he’d forbidden anyone to touch―and tests its keys by typing out a frivolous wish. When it comes true the very next day\, she tries another. Then\, those words also spring to life. Suddenly\, she becomes obsessed with using the typewriter to rewrite happiness for herself and her daughter. \nBut the more she shapes her real-life\, the more she uncovers disturbing truths about her family’s history and the unexpected cost of every story-come-true. She should destroy the typewriter\, yet when her daughter’s secret finally emerges\, Emerson is torn between paying the price for bending fate and embracing the uncertainty of an unscripted life. \nHARPER ROSS has enjoyed a lifelong love affair with the dramatic story worlds in books and movies. After leaving her legal practice to raise her kids\, she discovered her own creative side and began writing novels that explore friendship\, family\, and forgiveness. Because she also appreciates the magic in everyday life—from the spark of attraction to those serendipitous moments we all experience—you’ll find a dash of that in her work too. When she’s not at the keyboard\, she’s likely to be singing badly in her car\, dancing in her kitchen\, or walking her adorable dog\, Mo. She’s also a lucky wife and mother to a very patient and supportive family. \nPlease register so we can set the community room up with appropriate seating. \nBooks will be for sale at this event.
