SUMMARY:Meet Author Andrea J. Stein
DESCRIPTION:Andrea J. Stein will be here to discuss her new novel\, Dear El
 iza\, and the current climate for Jewish Authors. It is not necessary to r
 ead the book to attend the event. Dessert and refreshments will be served.
 \n\nJewish Unpacked has called Dear Eliza a "top Jewish beach read\," desc
 ribing it as "the perfect fit for Emily Henry and Katherine Center readers
 \," and in their new list of recommended autumn reads\, Kveller described 
 it as "a beautiful book about grief and families\, and a lovely tale about
  learning what it means to love." Andrea's first novel\, Typecast\, was re
 cently recommended as a "Summer Reading Schmooze" by The Center for Jewish
  History\, whose reviewer wrote\, "Almost everyone in this novel\, which t
 akes place in suburban New Jersey\, is Jewish. Jewishness is a given\, not
  a source of angst."\n\nDear Eliza centers on 26-year-old Eliza Levinger\,
  whose world crumbled when she lost her mom to cancer ten years earlier. E
 liza has finally rebuilt her life -- only to lose her dad unexpectedly. Ev
 en more unexpectedly\, at her dad's shiva\, her aunt gives her a letter fr
 om her mom\, having been instructed to deliver it only after Eliza's dad's
  death. Inside the letter? A bombshell that upends all of Eliza’s relati
 onships.\n\nRead more at: http://andreajstein.com
