Upcoming Book Signing Events + Book Synopses

Upcoming Book Signings Events—Get ready!

            National Bookstore usually holds book signing events every month, but what raised some eyebrows for avid book signing event goers are the absence of any announcements of upcoming international best-selling authors for the month of April and May. It was quite odd to have a two-month silence of the plannings for camp-outs, book hauls for signings, lining-up, posters and signs and cosplays. Then on the month of April, National Bookstore released three teaser photos! Here is the first one:

After all the guesses from the readers, National Bookstore finally revealed that Leigh Bardugo, author of the The Grisha Trilogy, is set to arrive in the Philippines on June to have a book signing event!

But of course, National Bookstore did not stop there! After giving out a huge announcement that they are bringing a well-known author to the country, they released another teaser that does not only pertain to one author but three—yes, three authors!!!

Three authors are set to meet their Filipino fans this July. Namely; Katie Cotugno, Melissa Kantor, and Robyn Schneider.

Katie Cotugno is known for her novels How to Love and 99 Days. On the other hand, Melissa Kantor is known for her works entitled Maybe One Day and Better Than Perfect. Robyn Schneider got well-known for her book called The Beginning of Everything, and now her new novel entitled Extraordinary Means.

            There is still no announcement if there will be a book signing event for the month of August, but rest-assured that the month of September will be jam-packed. Not only one event is to be held—but two!

            The first event for September that was announced months ago by the authors (yes, that’s author with the letter S), but there haven’t been any concrete and official announcement of the details yet from National Bookstore.

            This event is going to have three authors: Christine Brae, Tarryn Fisher, and the one and only Colleen Hoover. Christine Brae is known for her books entitled The Light in the Wound and its sequel, His Wounded Light. She also wrote Insipid, and her latest book—In This Life. Tarryn Fisher wrote a lot of novels, including Mud Vein, Love Me with Lies Trilogy and Never, Never  that she co-wrote with Colleen Hoover. Colleen Hoover is known for making her readers cry and laugh and blush with her romance novels, which are a lot! Some of her novels are Ugly Love, which is to be seen in the big screen by next year; her latest novel entitled Confess; Slammed Trilogy, and more.

            It is said that the event for the three authors would be during the Manila International Book Fair that is held every September at the SMX Convention in SM Mall of Asia, but there is still no updates regarding this event. Also note that since Colleen Hoover has at least 11 novels, there is no guarantee that there will be no limit of how many books are allowed to the signing.

            Oh but do you think National Bookstore is done? Of course not! National Bookstore released this teaser yet again before the month of April came to an end.

But what National Bookstore has not mentioned is that this author who will also be arriving on September has already visited the Philippines last year for a book signing event. So for those who were not able to meet this Queen author like I haven’t, this is our chance to see and meet her!

Yes everyone, our Queen Kiera is arriving this September for a book signing event in Shangri-La Plaza. She will also have a book signing event in the Manila International Book Fair but this event would only accommodate 200 persons on a first come, first served basis. Kiera Cass got famous for The Selections Series that also has novellas also known as The Selection Stories, and an extension of the story that was released only this May entitled The Heir.

            Oh no and oh yes! We are only halfway through the year but we are swarming with a lot of great authors! But, start saving up and ready your books because the number of books to be signed is no joke—they really are a lot!

            I hope to see you in these events, do not let such a great opportunity go to waste! It is not everyday that you meet the author who wrote a whole new world and a form of escape for you.

            For any questions, feel free to contact me, you know how!

            Below are the synopses of the books that are going to be signed by the authors coming here to the Philippines.

Synopsis via Goodreads:

  1. Leigh Bardugo (June):
  • Shadow and Bone (The Grisha, #1)

Alina Starkov doesn’t expect much from life. Orphaned by the Border Wars, she is sure of only one thing: her best friend, Mal–and her inconvenient crush on him. Until the day their army regiment enters the Fold, a swath of unnatural darkness crawling with monsters. When their convoy is attacked and Mal is brutally injured, Alina reveals a dormant power not even she knew existed.

Ripped from everything she knows, Alina is taken to the royal court to be trained as a member of the Grisha, the magical elite led by the mysterious Darkling. With Alina’s extraordinary power in his arsenal, he believes they can finally destory the Fold. Now Alina must find a way to master her untamed gift and somehow fit into her new life without Mal by her side. But nothing in this lavish world is what it seems. As the threat to the kingdom mounts and her dangerous attraction to the Darkling grows, Alina will uncover a secret that could tear her heart–and her country–in two.

  • Siege and Storm (The Grisha, #2)

Darkness never dies.

Hunted across the True Sea, haunted by the lives she took on the Fold, Alina must try to make a life with Mal in an unfamiliar land. She finds starting new is not easy while keeping her identity as the Sun Summoner a secret. She can’t outrun her past or her destiny for long.

The Darkling has emerged from the Shadow Fold with a terrifying new power and a dangerous plan that will test the very boundaries of the natural world. With the help of a notorious privateer, Alina returns to the country she abandoned, determined to fight the forces gathering against Ravka. But as her power grows, Alina slips deeper into the Darkling’s game of forbidden magic, and farther away from Mal. Somehow, she will have to choose between her country, her power, and the love she always thought would guide her–or risk losing everything to the oncoming storm.

  • Ruin and Rising (The Grisha, #3)

The capital has fallen.

The Darkling rules Ravka from his shadow throne.

Now the nation’s fate rests with a broken Sun Summoner, a disgraced tracker, and the shattered remnants of a once-great magical army.

Deep in an ancient network of tunnels and caverns, a weakened Alina must submit to the dubious protection of the Apparat and the zealots who worship her as a Saint. Yet her plans lie elsewhere, with the hunt for the elusive firebird and the hope that an outlaw prince still survives.

Alina will have to forge new alliances and put aside old rivalries as she and Mal race to find the last of Morozova’s amplifiers. But as she begins to unravel the Darkling’s secrets, she reveals a past that will forever alter her understanding of the bond they share and the power she wields. The firebird is the one thing that stands between Ravka and destruction—and claiming it could cost Alina the very future she’s fighting for.

  1. Katie Cotugno (July):
  • How to Love

Before:

Reena Montero has loved Sawyer LeGrande for as long as she can remember: as natural as breathing, as endless as time. But he’s never seemed to notice that Reena even exists until one day, impossibly, he does. Reena and Sawyer fall in messy, complicated love. But then Sawyer disappears from their humid Florida town without a word, leaving a devastated—and pregnant—Reena behind.

After:

Almost three years have passed, and there’s a new love in Reena’s life: her daughter, Hannah. Reena’s gotten used to being without Sawyer, and she’s finally getting the hang of this strange, unexpected life. But just as swiftly and suddenly as he disappeared, Sawyer turns up again. Reena doesn’t want anything to do with him, though she’d be lying if she said Sawyer’s being back wasn’t stirring something in her. After everything that’s happened, can Reena really let herself love Sawyer LeGrande again?

In this breathtaking debut, Katie Cotugno weaves together the story of one couple falling in love—twice.

  • 99 Days

Day 1: Julia Donnelly eggs my house my first night back in Star Lake, and that’s how I know everyone still remembers everything—how I destroyed my relationship with Patrick the night everything happened with his brother, Gabe. How I wrecked their whole family. Now I’m serving out my summer like a jail sentence: Just ninety-nine days till I can leave for college, and be done.

Day 4: A nasty note on my windshield makes it clear Julia isn’t finished. I’m expecting a fight when someone taps me on the shoulder, but it’s just Gabe, home from college and actually happy to see me. “For what it’s worth, Molly Barlow,” he says, “I’m really glad you’re back.”

Day 12: Gabe got me to come to this party, and I’m actually having fun. I think he’s about to kiss me—and that’s when I see Patrick. My Patrick, who’s supposed to be clear across the country. My Patrick, who’s never going to forgive me.

  1. Melissa Kantor (July):
  • Maybe One Day

Zoe and her best friend, Olivia, have always had big plans for the future, none of which included Olivia getting sick. Still, Zoe is determined to put on a brave face and be positive for her friend.

Even when she isn’t sure what to say.

Even when Olivia misses months of school.

Even when Zoe starts falling for Calvin, Olivia’s crush.

The one thing that keeps Zoe moving forward is knowing that Olivia will beat this, and everything will go back to the way it was before. It has to. Because the alternative is too terrifying for her to even imagine.

In this incandescent page-turner, which follows in the tradition of The Fault in Our Stars, Melissa Kantor artfully explores the idea that the worst thing to happen to you might not be something that is actually happening to you. Raw, irreverent, and honest, Zoe’s unforgettable voice and story will stay with readers long after the last page is turned.

  • Better Than Perfect

Juliet Newman has it all. A picture-perfect family; a handsome, loving boyfriend; and a foolproof life plan: ace her SATs, get accepted into Harvard early decision, and live happily ever after.

But when her dad moves out and her mom loses it, Juliet begins questioning the rules she’s always lived by. And to make everything even more complicated there’s Declan, the gorgeous boy who makes her feel alive and spontaneous—and who’s totally off-limits. Torn between the life she always thought she wanted and one she never knew was possible, Juliet begins to wonder: What if perfect isn’t all it’s cracked up to be?

Melissa Kantor once again delivers a tale that is equal parts surprising, humorous, heartbreaking, and romantic. Powerful and honest, Juliet’s story brilliantly portrays the highs and lows of life in high school and will resonate with any reader who has experienced either.

 

  1. Robyn Schenider (July):
  • The Beginning of Everything

Golden boy Ezra Faulkner believes everyone has a tragedy waiting for them—a single encounter after which everything that really matters will happen. His particular tragedy waited until he was primed to lose it all: in one spectacular night, a reckless driver shatters Ezra’s knee, his athletic career, and his social life.

No longer a front-runner for Homecoming King, Ezra finds himself at the table of misfits, where he encounters new girl Cassidy Thorpe. Cassidy is unlike anyone Ezra’s ever met, achingly effortless, fiercely intelligent, and determined to bring Ezra along on her endless adventures.

But as Ezra dives into his new studies, new friendships, and new love, he learns that some people, like books, are easy to misread. And now he must consider: if one’s singular tragedy has already hit and everything after it has mattered quite a bit, what happens when more misfortune strikes?

Robyn Schneider’s The Beginning of Everything is a lyrical, witty, and heart-wrenching novel about how difficult it is to play the part that people expect, and how new beginnings can stem from abrupt and tragic endings.

  • Extraordinary Means

From the author of The Beginning of Everything: two teens with a deadly disease fall in love on the brink of a cure.

At seventeen, overachieving Lane finds himself at Latham House, a sanatorium for teens suffering from an incurable strain of tuberculosis. Part hospital and part boarding school, Latham is a place of endless rules and confusing rituals, where it’s easier to fail breakfast than it is to flunk French.

There, Lane encounters a girl he knew years ago. Instead of the shy loner he remembers, Sadie has transformed. At Latham, she is sarcastic, fearless, and utterly compelling. Her friends, a group of eccentric troublemakers, fascinate Lane, who has never stepped out of bounds his whole life. And as he gradually becomes one of them, Sadie shows him their secrets: how to steal internet, how to sneak into town, and how to disable the med sensors they must wear at all times.

But there are consequences to having secrets, particularly at Latham House. And as Lane and Sadie begin to fall in love and their group begins to fall sicker, their insular world threatens to come crashing down.

Told in alternating points of view, Extraordinary Means is a darkly funny story about doomed friendships, first love, and the rare miracle of second chances.

  1. Christine Brae (September):
  • The Light in the Wound (The Light in the Wound, #1)

Affected by her parents’ highly publicized divorce, Isabel grows up isolated and alone, with a resolve to never fall in love and repeat their mistakes.

When Jesse Cain enters her life, she falls hopelessly in love with him, and every sadness she’s ever felt is washed away by his intensity and passion. But people change as they grow up. Things can never stay the same forever.

Jesse and Isabel fight to stay together, determined to hold on to what they once had. Isabel wonders if a second love can ever be enough to make her forget her first.

  • His Wounded Light (The Light in the Wound, #2)

The perfect life.

The perfect marriage.

The jilted lover.

Their worlds collide.

Fate intervenes twelve years later and their paths intersect once again. All three will question whether the heart is truly capable of dividing and being divided; each will decide whether it matters who you loved first or who you love last.

Together they will learn that in the end, there can always only be one.

  • Insipid

Banal. Lifeless and Colorless. These are the words that describe my life. I’ve made the right choices, done all the right things. I’m strong, intelligent and highly successful.

I’ve lived scrupulously, loved greatly, and shared my blessings equitably.

But life hasn’t been fair with me.

Now I’m drowning in the middle of the ocean, desperately searching for the shore, surrendering to the fact that I will never be happy.

Then he came along.

Life is unpredictable. You can play it safe and resist change for fear of the unknown. Or you can close your eyes and take the leap with the knowledge that your life will change forever.

Which one will I choose?

My name is Jade Richmond and this is my story.

  • In this Life

“Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere,

They’re in each other all along.”

Rumi

They say that life is full of choices. When you’re young and idealistic, you believe that the path you choose is the road that will lead you to your destiny.

But what if, along the way, fate decides to step in, and no amount of logic or rationality or even prayers can save you from your fortune? When the sacrifices you make, the love that you find, and the bright promise of the future are all snatched away from you, you’re left alone to pick up the pieces of your life.

This is a story about love, found in a faraway place by two very unlikely people. It is also a story about friendship and loyalty and fighting for what you have despite the illogical mystery of fate. It is a story of faith and acceptance, and learning that even the best-laid plans are powerless against the alignment of the universe.

From the beaches of Thailand to the streets of New York, three friends, Anna, Dante, and Jude will learn the hard way that once providence steps in, there is nothing in the world that can change what is truly meant to be.

  1. Tarryn Fisher (September):
  • The Opportunist (Love Me With Lies, #1)

Dirty Red

With a new role and a past full of secrets, Leah must decide how far she is willing to go to keep what she has stolen.

  • Thief (Love Me With Lies, #3)

Note to Self

Love is patient; love is kind.

Love doesn’t boast or brag.

There’s no arrogance in love;

it’s never rude, crude, or indecent-it’s not self absorbed.

Love isn’t easily upset.

Love doesn’t tally wrongs.

Love trusts, hopes, and endures no matter what.

Love will never become obsolete.

I’ll fight for her.

 

Thief

Caleb Drake never got over his first love. Not when he got married. Not when she got married.
