🍄 Author Meet & Greet & Book Signing with Heather FitzGerald 🧙♂️
Join us at The Reading Rabbit Bookshop on Sunday, November 15th from 2pm to 4pm for a special book signing with Heather FitzGerald for her exciting middle grade Christian fantasy series, The Tethered World Chronicles!
"“Normal” means different things to different people. For sixteen-year-old Sadie Larcen, family dynamics look a little different than most. Parents with oddball occupations? Normal. Five homeschooled siblings—one with autism? Normal.
Police knocking on the door and parents gone missing? Definitely not normal!
When Sadie uncovers the reasons behind her parents’ disappearance and the truth about her heritage, she despairs of ever feeling normal again. Especially when she learns that her mother’s interest in Bigfoot, Dwarves, and other lore extends beyond her popular blog. Sadie’s family has been entrusted with keeping the secrets of the Tethered World—home to creatures that once roamed the Garden of Eden.
Sadie and her siblings must venture into this land to rescue their parents. Stepping out of reality and into a world she never knew existed is a journey Sadie fears and resents. But she chooses to risk all to save her family. She’s just not sure she will survive in the process."
📅 Sunday, November 15th

Bob Buckel | Author Meet & Greet and Book Signing
📦 Author Meet & Greet & Book Signing with Bob Buckel 🔎
Join us at The Reading Rabbit Bookshop on Saturday, November 21st from 11AM to 1PM for a special book signing with Bob Buckel for his debut mystery novel, Undiscovered!
“As kids in a small West Texas town, Henry and Ella met for the first time in a tree in his front yard. They grew up together but drifted apart after high school when she married and he headed off to be a journalist.
Running alongside their current-day story is the story of Evelyn, who in 1951 is the unwed, pregnant teenage daughter of a cruel alcoholic father. A few years after his violent demise, she gets a visit from the county attorney and learns he had won a building – a three-story edifice that dominated the local skyline – in a poker game.
Years later, looking to forget the painful past, she stashes a trove of items in a storage unit in Fort Worth, hoping they will remain hidden forever. But Henry and Ella’s probe into those secrets puts them on a collision course; their two storylines merge in a shattering conclusion.”
