Come join us for the book launch of Alina Adams' brand new novel,  Go On Pretending , a book in which three generations of women battle against the tides of history, from segregated 1950s America to the fall of the USSR and the rise of revolutionary Rojava. You will have a chance to meet the author, and have your book signed.  As always, great company and light refreshments will be provided.  This event will be livestreamed on Youtube, so people can join us from all over the world.  The event is free, but you will have the option to pre-order the book, and make sure you will get your copy at the launch. Every book pre-ordered through us will be either signed for you at the event, or shipped to you with the author's autograph.  About the Author:  Alina Adams is the NYT-bestselling author of soap-opera tie-ins, figure-skating mysteries, romance, and historical novels. Born in Odessa, USSR, Adams immigrated to the United States at age seven and learned to speak English by watching American Soap Operas. After receiving her B.A. and M.A. in broadcast communications at San Francisco State University, Adams worked in television as a writer and researcher. Years later she penned the As The World Turns book tie-in, Oakdale Confidential, which became a New York Times bestseller. Her first historical novel, The Nesting Dolls, is a Soviet-Jewish historical novel published by HarperCollins in July 2020. My Mother’s Secret, published by History Through Fiction in November 2022, provides readers a rare glimpse into the world's first Jewish Autonomous Region of Birobidzhan while exploring universal themes of identity, love, loss, war, and parenthood. Adams lives in New York City with her husband and their three children. About the book: Rose Janowitz is a trailblazer in the 1950s golden age of television, skillfully navigating the shift from radio to TV soap operas while concealing secrets that could destroy her career. Beneath the spotlight lies her radical past and a forbidden romance with Jonas Cain, the African-American actor who brought Guiding Light to fame on radio. Rose's struggle to hide her relationship—and Jonas’s identity—from the powerful soap-opera creator Irna Phillips puts her resilience to the ultimate test. In 2012, Rose’s granddaughter Libby embarks on her own journey, joining the Women’s Revolution in Rojava, Syria, in search of a utopia and uncovering family secrets that bind her to her mother Emma, a former Soviet expatriate who confronted both political ideologies in 1980s America.
