Summer lovin': YA romance in a season of change

Join Jenny L. Howe and Read My Lips Boston at the Charles River Speedway on Monday, August 4, for a special evening celebrating Jenny’s YA debut, Love at Full Tilt — a joyful, romantic novel featuring fat girl representation, fandom, friendship, and falling in love. In conversation with Hannah Reynolds, author of Summer Nights and Meteorites, Jenny will share her thoughts on the craft and heart behind writing YA, the importance of diverse love stories, why the genre continues to resonate with readers of all ages, how summer romance can capture powerful coming-of-age moments, and what it means to write young adult fiction in today’s cultural landscape. Both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks will be available to purchase at the event. We are offering two tiers of tickets for this event (which you can purchase at the provided event link!): 🎟️&nbsp;$24.99: Your ticket includes event entry and an opportunity to meet the author, and helps cover Read My Lips Boston’s rental fee. 🎟️&nbsp;$37.41: Your ticket includes event entry, 10% off a copy of Love at Full Tilt, and the opportunity to meet the author and get your book signed!
