The Wedding People (2024) is the absorbing story of English professor Phoebe Stone, who feels that her life no longer has value due to a series of difficult circumstances. Events take a turn when Phoebe inadvertently becomes involved in a stranger’s wedding plans and she learns that self-reflection and happiness can be found just around the corner. As Jenna Bush Hager of The Today Show’s Read with Jenna Book Club describes it, this is “the perfect book to wrap up your summer reading…hilarious and heartwarming!”
A New York Times bestseller and Today Show Read with Jenna Book Club Pick, The Wedding People has sold over 1.5 million copies worldwide. It has also been named a Best Book of the Year by The Guardian, Time, Chicago Tribune, Elle, Real Simple, and Glamour.
Join us for a book signing and light refreshments after the talk. You are welcome to bring your own copy of Espach's book or purchase a copy from local indie bookshop Another Chapter Bookstore at the signing. Sign language interpretation will be provided.
Thanks to the fantastic crew at Penfield TV, the talk will live-stream at 7 PM on September 9. A recording will be available to view for two weeks afterward at penfieldlibrary.org or youtube.com/penfieldTV.
If you register but are then unable to attend, please notify us by calling 340-8720 or updating your registration status online so that we can offer open spaces to people on the wait list. We will also assume that multiple registrations under the same name are erroneous and will delete duplicates. Thank you!
