Sat 6/16  6pm-7pm  Gabrielle Donnelly reads from  her novel The Little Women Letters Touchstone Books, $15.00 pb, ISBN: 9781451617191 Sisters Emma, Lulu, and Sophie Atwater couldn't be more different. They adore each other and drive each other crazy in equal measure. Next to her accomplished sisters, Lulu can't help but feel like the failure of the Atwater family, working dead-end jobs with no romantic prospects in sight. When her mother asks her to find a book of old family recipes in the attic of her childhood home, Lulu stumbles across a stack of letters written by her great-great-grandmother Josephine March. As Lulu delves into the lives and secrets of the March sisters, she finds solace and guidance in Jo's words, discovering that she and Jo share many similarities, even though they are worlds apart. As uplifting as Little Women, Gabrielle Donnelly's novel will speak to anyone who's ever fought with a sister, fallen in love with a fabulous pair of shoes, or wondered what on earth life had in store for her. Gabrielle Donnelly was born and raised in London, where she worked as a journalist on women's magazines before moving to Los Angeles to specialize in show business journalism. She lives near Venice Beach with her husband.             Watch this short video to hear Gabrielle Donnelly discuss the March Sisters
