Authors for the rest of July - a former President, a bicyclist, a touring musician, and three women

So don't even think about going to see Jimmy Carter Tuesday unless you already have a ticket. The Book Store will be closed for the event. Ticket holders will wait in The Commons for their turn to stand in line to have their book signed. Expect the parking lot to be very full.

You will have to settle for a cyclist, a touring musician, or three women coming to terms with love and marriage.

Third Place Books is on the upper level of Town Center at the intersection of Ballinger Way and Bothell Way in Lake Forest Park.
