SUMMARY:Author Book Signing with Travis Dombrowski
DESCRIPTION:Step into a gripping psychological thriller where appearances can be dangerously deceiving. \nJoin us at The Viridian Bookshop for a book signing with author Travis Dombrowski\, celebrating his novel Conflicted. Meet the author\, hear about the inspiration behind the story\, and have your copy signed. \nIn Conflicted\, a seemingly ordinary man hides a terrifying secret. To neighbors and strangers\, he’s just another face in the crowd. To his wife and children\, he’s a devoted husband and father. But behind that ordinary life lies a serial killer struggling—and failing—to silence the violent urges that drive him. \nAs the body count rises\, Detective Lieutenant Mike Valentik becomes determined to stop the killer before another young victim is claimed. But can the detective catch him before it’s too late? Or will the killer’s own inner conflict finally bring an end to the nightmare? Along the way\, Conflicted also explores the devastating impact that one man’s darkest secrets have on the family who never saw them coming. \nPerfect for fans of psychological suspense\, crime fiction\, and page-turning thrillers\, Conflicted delivers unexpected twists that will keep readers guessing until the very end. \nWhether you’re already a fan of Travis Dombrowski or looking for your next can’t-put-it-down thriller\, we hope you’ll join us for this special event. \n  \nEvent Details:\n🗓️ Date: Thursday\, July 30th\n🕰️ Time: 5:30 PM – 8:30 PM\n📍 Location: The Viridian Bookshop \n💰 Cost: Free!

SUMMARY:Book Launch - The Kryptonite Club by Deanna R. Adams
DESCRIPTION:Meet Deanna R. Adams for the launch of her new book\, The Kryptonite Club.\nAbout the book:\nAfter a school shooting shatters an affluent Ohio suburb\, sixteen-year-old Tammi Campbell freezes when she spots Kurt Hutchinson—the shooter’s twin brother—in her therapist’s waiting room. In a town that refuses to see him as anything but a reflection of his brother’s violence\, Kurt is drowning in guilt and isolation. Tammi\, once the perfect “good girl\,” is beginning to unravel herself. Yet while others turn away\, Tammi says hello. \nThat small choice sparks an unlikely bond between Tammi\, Kurt\, and three other troubled teens—Connor\, a thrill-seeking skater; Levi\, his charming friend; and sophisticated Lula. Together they form their own therapy group\, The Kryptonite Club\, to shield them from a judgmental town and a broken world. \nBut healing is messy—boundaries blur\, loyalties strain. As summer ends and college nears\, things begin to splinter. \nThen Kurt vanishes after a party. \nAs the search intensifies\, buried secrets surface and fears about his worsening PTSD grow\, turning his retreat into a race against time. \nAbout the Author:\nDeanna R. Adams is an award-winning writer\, speaker\, and instructor. She is far too interested in books of all genres to stick to just one and so she writes both fiction and nonfiction.\nHer nonfiction books include Rock ’n’ Roll and the Cleveland Connection\, Cleveland’s Rock and Roll\, and Cleveland’s Rock and Roll Venues.\nHer novels include Peggy Sue Got Pregnant\, Scoundrels & Dreamers\, and her debut young adult crossover novel\, The Truth about Justyce\, third in the Peggy Sue Series\, which debuted #1 on Amazon’s New 2020 Releases. Her latest book is the historical women’s novel\, A Place We Belong.\n \n  \n📚 Event Details:\n🗓️ Date: Saturday\, July 18\n🕰️ Time: 1:00-1:30PM  Author Discussion\,\n1:30-3:00PM  Q&A + Signing\n📍 Location: The Viridian Bookshop\n💰 Cost: FREE

SUMMARY:Dovoli's Dire Disappearance - Beginner D&D one-shot w/ DM Jay
DESCRIPTION:Dovoli’s Dire Disappearance\nWant to learn how to play Dungeons & Dragons? \nJoin us for a beginner one-shot with our lead DM\, Jay\, Saturday July 11th! Bring your character from the Character Creation workshop on July 10th and play in your first session\, or get a refresher if it’s been a while! Teens and up are welcome.\nWhat is a “one-shot”? D&D campaigns can last months if not years\, so we offer these “one-shots” which are 3-4 hour sessions that have a beginning and an end to give you an introduction into what D&D is and for those that do not want to commit to a longer campaign. They provide as much fun and creativity without the long form time commitment. \nWhen: Saturday\, July 11th\nTime: 5:00 – 9:00 pm\nWhere: The Viridian Bookshop\nTickets: $30 \nDM Name: Jay\nSystem: Dungeons & Dragons 5e\nDifficulty: Beginner\nMax Players: 6\nMin Players: 3\nPlayer Requirements: level 1 character sheet generated with standard array or point buy stats\, dice set\, pen or pencil if you have physical character sheet. \nDescription:\nThe wizard Dovoli and his students have disappeared without a trace\, and his mansion is locked tight. \nThe adventurer’s guild has called your party to investigate what could have caused this\, before the mage’s absence (and his remaining students) wreak havoc on the town of Grisgrim. \n  \nThere is a 3-player minimum to all D&D one-shot events. If there are less than 3 players signed up by the night before the event\, players will be called the next morning and tickets will be refunded. \n  \nWhy Tickets Matter: \nYour ticket helps support our talented Game Masters by covering their time\, creativity\, and materials used to craft these adventures.
