As a counterpoint the maddness of Black Friday, we are pleased to host the launch party of local writer Penny Johnson's new novel, The Forget-Me-Nots! The event will include hommemade cheesecake and cookies, and seed packets of forget-me-not flowers will be gifted to all in attendance.

About the Book: 

Katrina Wade thinks her solitary life will continue when her great-aunt Minnie moves into a nursing home after being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. But, then she meets Aric Hammond, the nursing home director, and his son Gunnar, who has Autism Spectrum Disorder. Through her relationships with Aunt Minnie, Aric, and Gunnar, will Katrina overcome the amnesia brought on by a long-ago accident, and will Aric forget the past in order to remember the deeper meaning of caring for those he loves?
