SUMMARY:Aliza Layne Meet + Greet
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Curious Iguana at 6:00 pm on Wednesday\, April 30 for a meet-and-greet with author Aliza Layne as she promotes her new book\, Beetle & the Chimera Carnival. Aliza will be at the Iguana to meet fans and sign books! \nThis event is free and open to the public. Books will be available for purchase and signing at the event. \nAbout the book: Beetle and her friends attend a carnival full of dragons and magic\, only to discover something sinister at play behind the scenes\, in this delightful sequel to the Stonewall Honor–winning Beetle & the Hollowbones middle grade graphic novel. \nHidden behind the clouds\, giant dragons guard the most powerful magic in the world from prying eyes. On one magical night\, once every ten years\, these leviathans reveal themselves to a fanfare of costumes\, music\, and parades in the Chimera Carnival. \nBut this time\, something’s wrong. \nWhen Beetle\, Penny\, and Kat decide to check out the empty carnival site one night\, they discover an injured dragon screaming for help. And the more Beetle uncovers about the Chimera Carnival\, the more sinister it gets. Dragons who arrive for the early festivities disappear without a trace. Beetle’s magic begins to go haywire. And Kat’s parents come back to town\, worrying both girls about whether they have a future together. \nIn the catacombs beneath the demolished ’Allowstown mall\, something hungers for dragon magic. And Beetle and her friends are already more entwined with it than they could possibly imagine. \nAbout the author: Aliza Layne was raised by two married dogs but is now a cat. She makes monsters and goblins and Halloween costumes in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains\, where she lives with her gay friends. Beetle & the Hollowbones\, her first graphic novel\, was a Stonewall Honor Book. Find more of her work for adults and kids at Aliza Layne .

SUMMARY:In-Store Meet + Greet with Clay McLeod Chapman
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to host Clay McLeod Chapman for an in-store meet & greet on Saturday\, April 26 as part of our Indie Bookstore Day fun!

Copies of Wake Up and Open Your Eyes will be available for purchase and signing at this event. \nThis event is free and open to the public. For accessibility requests\, email info@curiousiguana.com at least two (2) weeks prior to the event. \nAbout the book: Noah Fairchild has been losing his formerly polite Southern parents to far-right cable news for years\, so when his mother leaves him a voicemail warning him that the “Great Reawakening” is here\, he assumes it’s related to one of the many conspiracy theories she believes in. But when his own phone calls go unanswered\, Noah makes the long drive from Brooklyn to Richmond\, Virginia. There\, he discovers his childhood home in shambles\, a fridge full of spoiled food\, and his parents locked in a terrifying trance-like state in front of the TV. Panicked\, Noah attempts to snap them out of it and get medical help. \nThen Noah’s mother brutally attacks him. \nBut Noah isn’t the only person to be attacked by a loved one. Families across the country are tearing each other apart-–literally-–as people succumb to a form of possession that gets worse the more time they spend watching particular channels\, using certain apps\, or visiting certain websites. In Noah’s Richmond-based family\, only he and his young nephew Marcus are unaffected. Together\, they must race back to the safe haven of Brooklyn–-but can they make it before they fall prey to the violent hordes? \nThis ambitious\, searing novel from “one of horror’s modern masters” holds a mirror to our divided nation\, and will shake readers to the core. \n“Clay McLeod Chapman is one of my favorite horror storytellers working today.”—Jordan Peele \n“Surreal\, hypnotic\, unrelenting\, profoundly claustrophobic\, and an absolutely scathing sendup of the pitfalls of American divisiveness.”—Keith Rosson\, author of Fever House \nFrom Vulture‘s “master of horror” Clay McLeod Chapman\, a relentless and emotionally charged social horror novel about a family on the run from a demonic possession epidemic that spreads through media\, for fans of The Last of Us and When Evil Lurks \nAbout the author: Clay McLeod Chapman writes novels\, comic books\, and children’s books\, as well as for film and TV. He is the author of the horror novels The Remaking\, Whisper Down the Lane\, Ghost Eaters\, and What Kind of Mother.

SUMMARY:Great Big Beautiful Life Release Day
DESCRIPTION:Calling all romance and Emily Henry fans! To celebrate the release of Emily’s new book Great Big Beautiful Life\, we will have some free goodies at the store for those who come to pick up a copy on release day\, April 22! Freebies are available on a first come\, first served while supplies last. \nPre-order your copy of Great Big Beautiful Life by clicking here. \nAbout the book: Two writers compete for the chance to tell the larger-than-life story of a woman with more than a couple of plot twists up her sleeve in this dazzling and sweeping novel from Emily Henry. \nAlice Scott is an eternal optimist still dreaming of her big writing break. Hayden Anderson is a Pulitzer-prize winning human thundercloud. And they’re both on balmy Little Crescent Island for the same reason: to write the biography of a woman no one has seen in years—or at least to meet with the octogenarian who claims to be the Margaret Ives. Tragic heiress\, former tabloid princess\, and daughter of one of the most storied (and scandalous) families of the twentieth century. \nWhen Margaret invites them both for a one-month trial period\, after which she’ll choose the person who’ll tell her story\, there are three things keeping Alice’s head in the game. \nOne: Alice genuinely likes people\, which means people usually like Alice—and she has a whole month to win the legendary woman over. \nTwo: She’s ready for this job and the chance to impress her perennially unimpressed family with a Serious Publication. \nThree: Hayden Anderson\, who should have no reason to be concerned about losing this book\, is glowering at her in a shaken-to-the core way that suggests he sees her as competition. \nBut the problem is\, Margaret is only giving each of them pieces of her story. Pieces they can’t swap to put together because of an ironclad NDA and an inconvenient yearning pulsing between them every time they’re in the same room. \nAnd it’s becoming abundantly clear that their story—just like the tale Margaret’s spinning—could be a mystery\, tragedy\, or love ballad…depending on who’s telling it.

SUMMARY:James Riley Meet + Greet
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Curious Iguana at 6:00 pm on Tuesday\, April 1 for a meet-and-greet with author James Riley as he promotes his new book\, The Dragon’s Apprentice. After spending the day visiting schools\, James will be at the Iguana in the evening to meet fans and sign books! If you can’t make it to the meet and greet but would  like to order a signed and personalized copy\, click here. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Books will be available for purchase and signing at the event. \nAbout the book: STOP. Don’t read any further. There are magic spells in this book\, and the Emperor has forbidden anyone from learning magic\, because it’s way too dangerous! If you try one of the spells\, any number of terrible things might happen (or so the Emperor says). \nDon’t be like Ciara\, a twelve-year-old girl living in the tiny village of Skael. When she used a spell from within this book\, she ended up summoning a dragon. A DRAGON! Those things breathe fire! From their mouths! She’s obviously doomed. \nAnd don’t listen if Ciara tells you that dragons won’t hurt humans\, and that they even once taught us magic\, a thousand years ago. Definitely don’t pay any attention to the fact that the dragon she summoned\, Scorch\, might be willing to help rescue Ciara’s mother and free her village from the Emperor and his Warden\, because it’s all obviously a big lie. So put this book down\, and forget about it. Magic is just way too dangerous. After all\, you wouldn’t want to summon your own dragon\, would you? \nAbout the author: James Riley is the New York Times bestselling author of the HALF UPON A TIME series\, the STORY THIEVES series\, the REVENGE OF MAGIC series\, the ONCE UPON ANOTHER TIME series\, and the new DRAGON’S APPRENTICE series. He was born in Connecticut\, where he lived for only a short time before moving to … well\, quite a few states. He currently lives in Boston\, Massachusetts\, because that’s where his cats are. He has three of them. Other people think that’s a bit much.

SUMMARY:Bob Shea: Bearsuit Turtle Makes a Friend
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Curious Iguana at 6:00 pm on Tuesday\, March 25 for a meet-and-greet with author Bob Shea as he promotes his new book\, Bearsuit Turtle Makes a Friend. After spending the day visiting schools\, Bob will be at the Iguana in the evening to meet fans and sign books! \nThis event is free and open to the public. Books will be available for purchase and signing at the event. \nAbout the book: Fall in love with a turtle wearing a bear suit—determined to prove that he’s a “for-real” bear—in this laugh-out-loud silly friendship story from the award-winning Bob Shea\, author-illustrator of the popular Dinosaur VS. series and Unicorn Thinks He’s Pretty Great. \nWhen a turtle in a bear suit claims he is a “for-real” bear\, he must prove himself to another turtle who just so happens to be a for-real bear expert. Hilarity ensues as Bearsuit Turtle proves he can climb trees\, hibernate\, and do other for-real bear stuff . . . like riding bikes\, eating ice cream\, and smashing pumpkins. But when Bear-Expert Turtle reveals a secret\, Bearsuit Turtle has to admit a truth of his own. Whether or not these two turtles are for-real bears or experts\, they just might become for-real friends. \nWith a fabulously endearing\, offbeat\, and memorable new character; playful\, true-to-life child dynamics; and a goofy\, kid-perfect sense of humor\, Bearsuit Turtle Makes a Friend is sure to charm readers everywhere. Includes a page of “for-real bear facts” at the end. \nAbout the author: Bob Shea has written and/or illustrated over 20 picture books including the popular Dinosaur Vs. series\, Unicorn Thinks He’s Pretty Great\, and the Ballet Cat early readers series. His most recent picture book\, Chez Bob\, received three starred reviews\, with Booklist calling it “terrifically funny and surprisingly sweet.” Bob’s characters and animations have appeared on Nick Jr\, Playhouse Disney\, and PBS Kids.
