Rainbow Rowell — In person. Lecture and book signing.
Rainbow Rowell is the author of Attachments, Eleanor & Park, Fangirl and Landline. She writes books about misfits and nerds, or people who feel like misfits and nerds, and how find their way through life — cracking each other up and falling in love. Rainbow’s books are international bestsellers and award winners. But they’re hard to categorize. She writes books about teenagers that adults read. And books about adults that teens read.
She is the author of this year’s community book for “On the Same Page in Lackawanna County.” Sign up at your local library to get a free book and join in a discussion of it. Then, see Rainbow Rowell in person!
