Book Signing and Meet-and-Greet with Libby Buck: PORT ANNA

Kick off your weekend with a festive meet-and-greet with author Libby Buck and her "enchanting debut novel exploring second chances and blossoming romance"! Port Anna is set in a charming port town in Maine, and is perfect for fans of J. Courtney Sullivan's The Cliffs and Catherine Newman's Sandwich-- of which we know there are many across The Ivy's lovely communities.

You'll have the chance to purchase your copy and have it signed by the author, who will be there to answer any questions you may have. A pop-up bar from our sister shop, Bird in Hand Coffee & Books, will have beverages available for purchase.

We can't wait to welcome you for a sweet, festive Friday evening!
