SUMMARY:Returning to Romance Through Food and Flirty Fun in Fiction with Casey McQuiston
DESCRIPTION:Register for this online event here: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/upcoming. \nBring an appetite for sizzling drama as we discuss New York Times bestselling author Casey McQuiston’s latest romantic comedy\, The Pairing. \nWhen two bisexual exes accidentally book the same European food and wine tour\, they challenge each other to a hookup competition to prove they’re over each other—except they’re definitely not. \nTheo and Kit have been a lot of things: childhood best friends\, crushes\, in love\, and now estranged exes. After a brutal breakup on the transatlantic flight to their dream European food and wine tour\, they exited each other’s lives once and for all. \nTime apart has done them good. Theo has found confidence as a hustling bartender by night and aspiring sommelier by day\, with a long roster of casual lovers. Kit\, who never returned to America\, graduated as the reigning sex god of his pastry school class and now bakes at one of the finest restaurants in Paris. Sure\, nothing really compares to what they had\, and life stretches out long and lonely ahead of them\, but—yeah. It’s in the past. \nAll that remains is the unused voucher for the European tour that never happened\, good for 48 months after its original date and about to expire. Four years later\, it seems like a great idea to finally take the trip. Solo. Separately. \nIt’s not until they board the tour bus that they discover they’ve both accidentally had the exact same idea\, and now they’re trapped with each other for three weeks of stunning views\, luscious flavors\, and the most romantic cities of France\, Spain\, and Italy. It’s fine. There’s nothing left between them. So much nothing that\, when Theo suggests a friendly wager to see who can sleep with their hot Italian tour guide first\, Kit is totally game. And why stop there? Why not a full-on European hookup competition? \nBut sometimes a taste of everything only makes you crave what you can’t have. \nRegister now to join our discussion about Casey McQuiston’s spiciest book yet! \nAbout the Author: Casey McQuiston is a #1 New York Times bestselling author of romantic comedies\, including One Last Stop\, Red\, White & Royal Blue\, I Kissed Shara Wheeler\, and The Pairing. Red\, White & Royal Blue was adapted into a movie in 2023 and released on Amazon Prime. Casey was recently named on the 2022 Time100 Next List.

Have you turned the act of pretending you’re “fine” into an art form?

Combining cutting-edge research\, practical tools\, and insights from her own struggle with a life-defining health crisis\, Dr. Eurich will overturn your beliefs about what it takes to thrive through adversity\, offering a scientifically supported system to help you feel better\, do better\, and live better than before. You’ll discover how to: \n\nReclaim your best self when stress turns you into someone you barely recognize\nUncover the unmet needs that keep you stuck in self-limiting patterns\nTurn stress into strength\, exhaustion into energy\, and confusion into confidence\nFind peace in the present and be prepared for what the future holds\, and much more!\n\nThis timely discussion with Dr. Eurich is sure to unlock powerful new ideas about how to show up as our best selves. Register now to be a part of the conversation! \nAbout the Author: Dr. Tasha Eurich is an organizational psychologist\, researcher\, and New York Times bestselling author on a mission to help people and organizations thrive in an ever-changing world. Recognized as the world’s leading self-awareness coach (Marshall Goldsmith Coaching Awards) and communication expert (Global Gurus)\, she’s spent over two decades teaching people practical strategies to supercharge their self-awareness\, sanity\, and success. Her work has been featured in outlets like The Wall Street Journal\, The New York Times\, Harvard Business Review\, NPR\, CNN\, NBC\, and Fast Company\, as well as peer-reviewed journals.
