Featured Authors
Laney Stargel | The Threat of Hope The Threat of Hope is the story of a woman facing the weight of survival in modern-day America who finds escape through an unlikely source and risks losing everything to find herself, only to wind up right back where she started.
Jane Simon Ammeson | 100 Things to Do in South Bend, Indiana, Before You Die. From the Gothic architecture and Golden Dome of the University of Notre Dame to the
pulsing live jazz at the Midway Tavern, South Bend is a vibrant city that reconnects its working-class roots while embracing the 21st century. Centuries ago, Native Americans and French voyagers explored the region via the St.Joseph River. Today, dine in style at the Cascade prime steak and seafood restaurant
with its stellar views of the water, or sample a flight of beers on the outdoor patio overlooking the river at the Crooked Ewe Brewery & Ale House. Connect to the city’s past at the History Museum, Copshaholm, and the Studebaker Museum.
Experience creative coffee culture and conviviality at Cloud Walking, Chicory Café, the Cat Lady Cafe, and Apothica Teas: Infusion & Frivolities. Cheer the Irish on at classics
like Corby’s, O’Rourke’s, and the Linebacker. Discover the city’s creativity at the Raclin Murphy Museum of Art on the Notre Dame campus. For all this and more, join local author Jane Simon Ammeson for a tour of South Bend’s best.
Whether you’re meeting an author, finding your next great read, or getting a head start on your holiday shopping, this is an afternoon to savor connection, conversation, and community at Fables Books.
