The Velvet Mat Book Club Launch: The Critic with Author L.L. Kirchner

We’re launching The Velvet Mat Book Club the only way we know how: VIP-style, underground, with wine, cake, and the actual author in the room.

Join us for a special book launch celebration for The Critic, a darkly funny psychological suspense novel set in 1995 Pittsburgh by L.L. Kirchner. Think sharp mouths, unreliable memories, newsroom drama, poisoned brownies, dial-up modems, and women who were absolutely too much for the room.

She'll be interviewed by author Tara Lush for an evening of wine, cake, and a costume contest. Come dressed as your favorite '90s woman. Come dressed as your favorite ’90s woman.... Tonya Harding, Anita Hill, Monica Lewinsky, Courtney Love, Winona, Princess Di, whoever speaks to your chaotic little soul.

See you all tomorrow!!

Bookstores and pole dancing studios don’t usually mix, but anything goes in the biggest romance book boom of all time. To celebrate Impulse Studios’ sweet 16, St. Pete bookseller Pages & Perks will be among the poles for a daytime “B***y, Books & Bubbles” party that includes “booty-rific class fun,” raffles, and spicy reads.
