Book clubs are about more than just reading—they help build healthy relationships\, broaden horiz ons\, and develop essential life skills!\n\n_____________\n\n\n\n\n\n\n&nb sp\;\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBeing a typewriter is not as easy as it look s. Surrounded by books (notorious attention hogs) and recently replaced by a computer\, Olivetti has been forgotten by the Brindle family—the fami ly he’s lived with for years. The Brindles are busy humans\, apart from 12-year-old Ernest\, who would rather be left alone with his collection of Oxford English Dictionaries. The least they could do was remember Olivett i once in a while\, since he remembers every word they’ve typed on him. It’s a thankless job\, keeping memories alive.\n\nOlivetti gets a rare g limpse of action from Ernest’s mom\, Beatrice--his used-to-be most frequ ent visitor—only for her to drop him off at Heartland Pawn Shop and leav e him helplessly behind. When Olivetti learns Beatrice has mysteriously go ne missing afterward\, he believes he can help find her. He breaks the onl y rule of the “typewriterly code” and types back to Ernest\, divulging Beatrice’s memories stored inside him.\n\nTheir search takes them acros s San Francisco—chasing clues\, maybe committing a few misdemeanors. As Olivetti spills out the past\, Ernest is forced to face what he and his fa mily have been running from\, The Everything That Happened. Only by workin g together will they find Beatrice\, belonging\, and the parts of themselv es they’ve lost.\n\n\n\n\n\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:5@thestorybookmkt.com DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240727T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240727T103000 DTSTAMP:20240716T193800Z URL:https://thestorybookmkt.com/events/book-launch-with-abigail-burle/ SUMMARY:Book Launch with Abigail Burle DESCRIPTION:What an honor to be a part of Abigail Burle's very first book launch!
