Books & Bites: Jennifer Moorman

Please join us for a Books & Bites event featuring author Jennifer Moorman with her newly-released novel 'the Charmed Library.'

Jennifer Moorman is the USA TODAY Bestselling author of five novels, including The Vanishing of Josephine Reynolds, The Magic All Around, and the Mystic Water Series. Her creative works also include a collection of folklore retellings and Strawberry Shortcake children’s books. Praised by Publisher’s Weekly, Booklist, Kirkus Reviews, and others, The Vanishing of Josephine Reynolds is described as 'imbued with Moorman’s trademark touch of magic,' 'a seamless blend of history and magical realism,' 'an absolute treasure of a book,' and 'absolutely mesmerizing.'

On January 8th come listen to Jennifer discuss her newest book 'the Charmed Library.' With her signature blend of magical and heartfelt storytelling, Jennifer Moorman returns with The Charmed Library, a love letter to libraries, favorite childhood stories, and readers who have fallen for fictional heroes.
