April Authors, Pt. I

Our first author of April is Dani Shapiro!
Dani's new memoir, Devotion, was chosen by the New York Times as an Editor's Choice book.
People Magazine raves about Devotion, "Brave, compelling, unexpectedly witty...the journey is indeed the reward."
Devotion was also featured in Elle Magazine.

We were very excited that Dani was able to join us for an event - especially because she scheduled us on her birthday! Bakla Java custom designed a cake based on the cover of Dani's book, in honor of the big day.
Our audience really bonded with Dani, who read several excerpts from Devotion and discussed a variety of topics. The conversation was so intriguing that the signing ran almost 2 hours, with eventgoers eventually sharing their own stories with the author. Many thanks to Dani for coming, and to our loyal readers!

  1. I had a lovely time at the wonderful Book Cove -- thanks for hosting me! The cake was AMAZING. It's not every author who gets a cake inspired by her book jacket. Many thanks.
