Just in case the post title (please don't judge my cheesy humor) did not give you a clue, Molly Ringwald fans have lots to get excited about! This lovely leading lady has a new book coming out in August, When It Happens to You, and it is garnering some stellar praise. One of my faves, Eleanor Henderson (break-out debut novelist of Ten Thousand Saints) had this to say:
""Molly Ringwald's eight electric stories are alive with Joycean insight—piercing, epiphanic moments of terror, humor, and transcendence. Together they offer a deeply moving portrait of modern life."
And I know several of you were fans of Lauren Groff's Arcadia. Well, she was also a fan:
“When It Happens to You is absolutely lovely, a smart, emotionally sophisticated, intricately dovetailed novel of stories. World, I'm telling you now: Molly Ringwald is the real deal.”
You know what?? Molly Ringwald is going to be signing galleys of her forthcoming book at ALA in Anaheim – boom! Cool, huh? So come by Booth 2559 (any time) but especially Saturday at 3pm to get a copy!
