Let's do a little Summer 2024 Recap this week, shall we? Waaaaay back in May right after school got out, some friends and I drove over to Thomasville for the evening to attend a book signing by the one and only Mary Kay Andrews. To say I was excited is an understatement! She's definitely one of my favorites and has been for YEARS. The Book Shelf is always doing amazing events for readers (this is the second we've been to recently!) and this one was so nice! Tickets were sold so there were seats and plenty of space for everyone!
After mingling around a few minutes after arriving, we got seated and the queen herself came out! Two of us are avid MKA readers and two of us have become MKA readers! Jennifer and I have pretty much gobbled up everything she's put out, but I think this event introduced Lori and Stephanie to her writing. She's just so fun! If you like funny rom-com with a side of murder and mystery, she's your author!
After entertaining us for about half an hour, she opened it up for questions. Her new book is BASICALLY set in Brunswick and St. Simons and features a resort called The Saint that's very similar to one on Sea Island called The Cloister. I STILL haven't read it, but I DID get my copy signed and it's proudly featured on my bedside table currently.
After the event was over and we had our signed books, we walked down the street (I LOVE Thomasville!) to eat dinner at Jonah's. I ate at Jonah's for the first time in April and I've decided it's one of my favorite places EVER. The food is so, so good!
It was an evening well-spent!
