Meet Kristina Riggle & Maryann Lesert

Friday, February 24 at 6:30 pm

Join us at our Parkview store as we welcome novelists Kristina Riggle
and Maryann Lesert. The authors will read from their books and
discuss how they write and their publishing paths.
Kristina’s latest novel is Things We Didn’t Say, featuring a frayed
blended family about to come undone completely when a teen-age son
goes missing.
Maryann’s Base Ten exposes the daily battles of women scientists
fighting to preserve a family life and succeed in a discipline that
functions on the archaic belief that every scientist has a "wife" at home.

Co-sponsored by Kazoo Books and the Portage District Library.
