To celebrate DC native Haili Blassingame’s debut novel, THEY ALL FALL IN LOVE AT THE END, Lost City Books is throwing a launch party themed around messy love stories. Haili, and a crew of writers she has assembled, will read excerpts from their work, but there will also be audience participation in the form of anonymously submitting messy dating stories. It’s going to be a night of laughter, of gasps, of books, of great company. Refreshments will be available. We can’t wait to see you there!

“We are excited to provide residents outdoor pool options in addition to our indoor pools to close out the summer season,” said DPR Director Thennie Freeman. “The locations that will remain open were selected to be most equitable to residents with one pool on both sides of the city and all DPR spray parks.”
