Animal Fix

“This is Kebra, he was found on 15th street at only four weeks old with a smashed femur. He gets around just fine on the three legs he has (at around six months) and is super fast (and sweet). He loves his squeaky hot dog!”

Event

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!
