Welcome, Book Clubs!

Hey, Readers!

Is your book club reading Aftertaste? Are you considering choosing it for a future meeting? That’s incredible to hear, and I promise you’ll have lots to discuss! Whether you’re excited by food and memories, loss and love, or ghosts and the fiery world of restaurant kitchens, this book is your conversational oyster.

I’ve worked with my team at Simon & Schuster to put together some great reading group materials for you, including (click the image to download a PDF!):

Want a more personal experience?

I’d be honored to join your group for a chat—either online via Zoom, or in person if you’re in the Northern NJ / NYC area. I can share details about the writing process, some special secrets about Aftertaste (there are so many Easter Eggs) and then open it up to your questions before I leave you to discuss and socialize (and hopefully eat—do not read this book on an empty stomach!).

Requesting a book club visit is easy:

  1. Complete the form below, including your top three dates and a preferred time.

  2. I’ll respond and we’ll set a tentative date.

  3. You’ll order copies of the book through the bookstore of your choice. (I’ll be happy to send you signed book plates if you’d like, or, if you’d like to order personalized or autographed copies, you can order them through BookEnds).

  4. You’ll send me a confirmation of your order, and we’ll finalize links for Zoom as well as the date/time for our meeting.

  5. We’ll have a blast!
