Book Description: Susan Coll uses her experience as both an author and former bookstore employee to deliver a big-hearted screwball comedy about stories: those we sell to others, those we tell ourselves, and the everyday drama of the pages between who we are and who we’re becoming.
A perfect storm of comedic proportions erupts in a DC bookstore over the course of one soggy summer week—narrated by two very different women and punctuated by political turmoil, a celestial event, and a perpetually broken vacuum cleaner.
