Wine & Words: Book Reading with Courtney Kocak, Mary Lucia & Angela Pelster

Join us at Troubadour Wine Bar for an evening of wine, storytelling, and conversation with three acclaimed writers.

Courtney Kocak will read from her debut memoir , an unwitting feminist coming-of-age story tracing her journey from small-town Minnesota to the underbelly of Hollywood. Through sharp, candid storytelling, the book explores ambition, exploitation, and what it takes to reclaim your voice.

She’ll be joined by local authors Mary Lucia (What Doesn’t K*ll Me Makes Me Weirder and Harder to Relate To) and Angela Pelster (The Evolution of Fire) for a dynamic night of readings and conversation.

✨ Expect:

• Live readings from all three authors
• Conversation on memoir, storytelling, and creative life
• Audience Q&A
• Book signing

Perfect for readers, writers, and anyone who loves a smart, intimate literary night.

🎟️ Reserve your spot—space may be limited.
