We have been looking forward to the publication of Julia Claiborne Johnson’s new novel, BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME, for ages - and the time is finally here! Our wonderful free-range bookseller Mary (who reads everything) describes it thusly: “Sharp and witty dialog and a unique story combine to make this book a must-read.”

To mark the occasion, we’re teaming up with Julia and her publishers, and a few other wonderful independent bookstores, to bring you an exclusive online presentation about the book. Julia will be in conversation with another Skylark favorite, author Steven Rowley, on Wednesday, January 6 at 6:00 p.m. To receive a free invitation to the event, pre-order the book from us, either via the website or by dropping us a line.

This will be a joyous and hugely entertaining event. Come join us!
