Upcoming Events ~SEE OUR SPOTLIGHT SECTION~ The BookBay thanks you. “We’ve hit the two-year anniversary for our ownership, and want to thank all of you for your patronage. The learning curve is still curving…but what fun we’re having. Book people are the best. The list of authors that have had “signings” just grows! On November 16th, the BookBay hosted Janey Bennett, author of “The Pale Surface of Things,” and what a wonderful night. The story is set in Crete, and Janey has done so much research into the history, culture, and geography of the region, that you felt like you were right there with the characters and were part of the story. There was a lot of questions and discussion – made for a great evening. Janey promised to set another date – probably in January – for a return visit. We’ll let you know so you won’t miss the opportunity to meet Janey.”
The BookBay has been happy to host a number of local author book signings – Elizabeth George – Inspector Lynley series Jean Summers – ”The Kid’s Guide to Writing Great Thank-You Notes” Thomas Trimbath – “Pedaling Across America ” and his “Twelve Months…” series Chris Highland – “Meditations on…” series (Thoreau, Emerson, Muir, Whitman) “Whidbey Walks….” series Pat Detmer – “Laughing All the Way” Michael Donnelly – “False Harbor” and “Awakening Curry Buckle” Stephen Hannemann – “Death of a Warrior” Peter Lawler – dubbed “Poet Laureatte of Whidbey Island ” by our own Jim Freeman Janey Bennett – “The Pale Surface of Things "Need a stocking stuffer?
