2016 Your Locally-Owned Independent Bookseller — Publishers
SEPTEMBER 2016 Dave Barry: 9/6, 7:30pm @ CORAL GABLES CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH A brilliantly funny exploration of the Sunshine State from the man who knows it best: Pulitzer Prize winner and New York Times–bestselling author Dave Barry. Best. State. Ever (G.P. Putnam’s Sons, $27) celebrates Florida from Key West at the bottom to whatever it is that’s at the top, from the Sunshine State’s earliest history to the fun-fair of weirdness that it is today. Brad Meltzer: 9/10, 7pm @ GABLES We can all be heroes. That’s the inspiring message of this New York Times bestselling picture book biography series from historian and author Brad Meltzer. Learn all about I Am Jane Goodall, the chimpanzee scientist and I Am George Washington, America’s first president. Jonathan Safran Foer: 9/14, 7:30pm @ TEMPLE JUDEA Showcasing the same high-energy inventiveness, hilarious irreverence, and emotional urgency that readers loved in his earlier work, Here I Am (Farrar, Strauss & Giroux, $28) is Foer’s most searching, hardhitting, and grandly entertaining novel yet. It not only confirms Foer’s stature as a dazzling literary talent but reveals a novelist who has fully come into his own as one of our most important writers. Carl Hiaasen: 9/28, 7:30pm @ CORAL GABLES CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH The new full-tilt, unstoppably hilarious and entertaining novel from the best-selling author of Skinny Dip and Bad Monkey - Razor Girl (Knopf, $27.95) is only the beginning of events that spiral crazily out of control while unleashing some of the wildest characters Hiaasen has ever set loose on the page. Danielle Flood:9/19, 8pm @ GABLES A journalist born of the wartime love triangle that inspired the one in Graham Greene's The Quiet American, searches for her father after surviving a bizarre youth of privilege, estrangement and cruelty. The Unquiet Daughter (Piscataqua Press, $19.95) is the true story of an exceptional woman. It takes the reader on an amazing journey. Exotic, mysterious, exciting, and romantic. Your Locally-Owned Independent Bookseller — Publishers Weekly Bookstore of the Year — CORAL GABLES MIAMI BEACH BAL HARBOUR SHOPS GRAND CAYMAN WYNWOOD WESTHAMPTON BEACH ADRIENNE ARSHT CENTER @THE STUDIOS OF KEY WEST MIA Lynne Cox: 9/20, 8pm @ GABLES From inspired and inspiring open-water swimmer and supreme athlete, able to endure cold water temperatures that would kill others, author of Swimming to Antarctica (Knopf, $25) comes a powerful book about super athleticism and human frailty, about invincibility and the sudden (mind-altering) repercussions of illness, and about the triumph of spirit, surrender, and love. Celebrating Author’s Birthdays with special drinks, readings, trivia, discounted books & more! Francisco Fialli: 9/4, 5pm @ GABLES Muchos creemos que los operadores de bolsa son grandes economistas y eruditos de las finanzas, pero esto no es del todo cierto. El mundo de la bolsa está rodeado de personas de a pie como nosotros. Encontraremos amas de casa, hosteleros, funcionarios, estudiantes, y todos en busca de un tesoro que la gran mayoría desea: la independencia financiera. Trading y bolsa (Pirámide, $22.99) está dirigido a todos los públicos, no requiere conocimientos previos para su entendimiento, pero también puede ser muy útil para aquellas personas inmersas en el trading que buscan un método para reforzar conocimientos. Dr. Juan Rivera: 9/8, 6pm @ GABLES La primera parte de Mejora tu salud de poquito a poco ($15.95) explica las cuatro enfermedades que amenazan la salud de los hispanos: la obesidad, la diabetes, las enfermedades del corazón y el cáncer. La segunda detalla los siete mandamientos para lograr una buena salud a largo plazo, no solo promoviendo una alimentación balanceada y ejercicio regular, pero también la importancia del descanso, el control del estrés, la vida sexual, como procrear bebés saludables y finalmente cómo evitar los errores médicos. Dante Gebel: 8/13, 7pm @ MIAMI DADE COLLEGE El amor en los tiempos del Facebook (HarperCollins, $13.99) es una crónica desprolija acerca del amor, una compilación de apuntes que surgen del alma, pero que en definitiva provienen del mayor sentimiento que nos regaló nuestro Dios. «Un libro que deberían leer por lo menos una vez mis amigos solteros, los novios, aquellos que solo quieren vivir un buen momento sin comprometerse demasiado, los que tienen el corazón destrozado, los posesivos, los que tienen miedo a confesar sus sentimientos, los casados que sienten que se les enfrió la llama, los que toleran un noviazgo disfuncional, los enamorados no correspondidos, y fundamentalmente, los enamorados del amor». – Recomendación del autor. Ismael Cala: 8/28, 6:30pm @ GABLES La vida es una piñata (HarperCollins, $14.99) te abrirá los ojos para valorar lo que realmente importa en esta celebración llamada vida, incluyendo la gran diferencia entre los valores materiales y los espirituales». – Dr. César Lozano. Este libro cambiará tu manera de ver la vida, tu mundo, tus ideales, tus paradigmas y tu sentido de propósito. La piñata, como la vida, está llena de situaciones impredecibles, pero tú decides cómo reaccionar ante ellas. Nunca más v erás una piñata sin pensar en las grandes metáforas creadas en esta obra.
