All She Wrote Books: November Breakfast Club [11/10/24]

In November, our Breakfast Club will read Just As You Are by Camille Kellogg. Mark your calendar for November 10th at 10:30am as we gather at All She Wrote Books to discuss this page-turning, sexy, and delightfully funny rom-com that celebrates queer culture, chosen family, and falling in love against your better judgment.

Event Highlights:

Immersive Book Discussion with a Community of Enthusiastic Readers
Coffee and pastries from local French bakery, Michette

Tickets are limited to due to capacity at the bookstore, and each ticket will include either:

A copy of the breakfast book club pick; or
General admission that includes coffee and pastries.

There are many ways to obtain a copy of the book (aside from your public library) — you can purchase it through allshewrotebooks.com, Bookshop.org, or Libro.fm to help support our work!

Our event has a limited capacity and we want to ensure that as many people as possible are able to attend. By letting us know that you can no longer attend, we can open up your spot to someone on our waitlist who is eager to participate.

"Inclusivity" isn't just a buzzword to us. We make every effort to ensure our space and events are accessible to and for everyone. If you or someone in your party needs accommodations, please email us at [email protected].

About the Book:

The only thing worse than hating your boss? Being attracted to her.

Liz Baker and her three roommates work at the Nether Fields, a queer magazine in New York that’s on the verge of shutting down—until it’s bought at the last minute by two wealthy lesbians. Liz knows she’s lucky to still have a paycheck but it’s hard to feel grateful with minority investor Daria Fitzgerald slashing budgets, cancelling bagel Fridays, and password protecting the color printer to prevent “frivolous use.” When Liz overhears Daria scoffing at her listicles, she knows that it’s only a matter of time before her impulsive mouth gets herself fired.

But as Liz and Daria wind up having to spend more and more time together, Liz starts to see a softer side to Daria—she’s funny, thoughtful, and likes the way Liz’s gender presentation varies between butch and femme. Despite the evidence that Liz can’t trust her, it’s hard to keep hating Daria—and even harder to resist the chemistry between them.

About the Author:

She studied English and creative writing at Middlebury College and attended the Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference on a fiction scholarship.
