Join us for this special book gathering for you and the teen in your life, featuring YA author Susie Nadler '99 talking about her new book, Lies We Tell About the Stars. The event is hosted by Susie's roommate at Brown, Eileen Rinaldi '99, owner of Ritual Coffee at the Valencia St. location. 

About Lies We Tell About the Stars, written for teens 14 +: 

The story takes place in a kind of alternate near future, with the first human mission to Mars about to take off. The disaster is a huge earthquake that hits San Francisco on the first page of the book. The mystery: Celeste’s best friend Nicky disappears on the day of the quake, but she knows he was already planning to run away. So is he still alive, or has she lost him forever? They’re seniors in high school, so this all happens when they’re just on the cusp of leaving their childhoods behind. On her quest to find Nicky, Celeste meets a beguiling boy (enter the romance!) and discovers some truths about herself.
