Browseabout to host Mary Kay Andrews author luncheon at Crab House May 25

May 21, 2019

Browseabout Books’ popular author luncheons will kick off Memorial Day weekend with New York Times bestselling author Mary Kay Andrews at 12 p.m., Saturday, May 25, at the Crab House on Coastal Highway, Rehoboth Beach. This is the first in a full slate of author-related events to be hosted by Browseabout, including book signings, author luncheons and happy hours, author receptions, and other events in partnership with the fall History Book Festival in Lewes.

Andrews is the author of 24 novels, including “The High Tide Club,” “The Weekenders,” “Beach Town,” “Summer Rental,” “Deep Dish” and many more. She wrote her first cookbook, “The Beach House Cookbook,” in 2017. Before she began her fiction-writing career, she was a journalist for 14 years in Georgia.

“Mary Kay Andrews is a perennial favorite with our readers. We look forward to inviting her back each year,” said Susan Kehoe, managing partner at Browseabout. “Her novels include all the elements of a great beach read – beautiful beach settings, suspense, and a little romance.”

Family drama, an unsolved murder and an inherited beach cottage harboring old secrets are just a few of the sparks that ignite a series of plot twists in Andrews’ latest novel, “Sunset Beach,” which she will discuss at the May 25 luncheon.

The cost to attend is $55 and includes lunch, gratuity, a copy of “Sunset Beach” and a canvas tote. Attendees can have their book personalized and get a picture taken with Andrews.

RSVPs are required for this event. To reserve a spot, stop in at Browseabout Books, go to www.browseaboutbooks.com or call 302-226-2665. The website includes a complete list of author events, including luncheons with Patti Callahan Henry, Elin Hilderbrand, Megan Miranda and Laura Lippman; a happy hour with Jane Green; and other receptions and signings. More events will be added throughout the summer.

For more than 40 years, owners Steve and Barbara Crane have made Browseabout Books an institution in Rehoboth Beach. The store is at 233 Rehoboth Ave. in Rehoboth Beach.
