It’s not often a group of Tahoe area authors gathers in the same place.

The South Lake Tahoe Friends of the Library is hosting an event on the library’s lawn (1000 Rufus Allen Blvd.) on June 27 from 4-7pm.

This will be a great place to find the perfect book for the beach this summer as well as to stock up on gifts. A signed book is a pretty cool thing to have on your book shelf or to give to someone.

Joining me at the event will be Bruce Rettig, Lori Ault, Robert Max, Ben Rogers, Lori Ault, Kristine Russell, Gantt Miller, Kathy Fellure and Tanja Hester.

We will all be selling our books. For me that includes Sleeping with Strangers: An Airbnb Host’s Life in Lake Tahoe and Mexico ($20), Lake Tahoe Trails For All Seasons: Must-Do Hiking and Snowshoe Treks ($20), The Dirt Around Lake Tahoe: Must-Do Scenic Hikes ($15), and Snowshoeing Around Lake Tahoe: Must-Do Scenic Treks ($10). I accept cash and Venmo.

Some of the authors will be reading from their published works.

The event is free to attend.
