About this Event

Meet Ivy bookseller favorite writer Camille Perri as she discusses her hilarious and heartwarming new book set in Maryland, SOCIAL ANIMALS, with Baltimore writer Marion Winik!

A dark comedy that manages to be a happy book about sad people, SOCIAL ANIMALS blends sharp observational humor, warm emotional insight, and a twist-filled mystery as three women—with nothing in common except the dogs they love—find their lives unexpectedly, sometimes disastrously, intertwining.

Bring your pup to this dog-friendly patio event where both of you just might make a new friend.

Order SOCIAL ANIMALS here!
