About this Event
Zibby Owens has taken the book world by storm, with her podcast (Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books), online book groups, and reading recommendations for national and regional television shows. BOOKENDS, her first memoir, is subtitled "A Memoir about Love, Loss and LIterature", and is a deeply personal memoir about finding your voice and rewriting your story.
Zibby Owens' infectious energy, tasteful authenticity, and smart, steadfast support of authors started in childhood, a precedent set by the profound effect books and libraries had on her own family. But after losing her closest friend on 9/11 and later becoming utterly stressed out and overwhelmed by motherhood, Zibby was forgetting what made her her. She turned to books and writing for help. Just when things seemed particularly bleak, Zibby unexpectedly fell in love with a tennis pro turned movie producer who showed her the path to happiness: away from type A perfectionism and toward “letting things unfold organically.” What “unfolded” was a meaningful career, a great love, and finally, her voice, now heard by millions of listeners.
An honest and moving story about relationships, love, food issues, the writing life, and finding one’s true calling, BOOKENDS will inspire and uplift.
