Readings, Where to Buy, & News

So the Maplewood reading for Comeback Love is this Saturday, Nov. 13, at 7:30 @ the Words bookstore. (179 Maplewood Ave., Maplewood, NJ 07040) Hope to see you there.

Thank you for all of the e-mails regarding the slight delay in getting Comeback Love to the stores and at online sellers. My publisher assures me that it should be taken care of over the next week or two. Amazon will have it next week, and soon after that the novel will be at the wonderful Independent bookstore site, Indiebound. The distributor Ingram should have it, which means you'll be able to order the novel just about anywhere, and it's already with another distributor, Bookazine, so many of you can order the novel at your local indie bookstore.

Another review of sorts has come in: Comeback Love was one of the Roundtable Weekly Book Picks at WAMC—Northeast Public Radio.
 
Last Saturday, we had a reading up here: a hundred people showed up, and it was quite a party. Here are a few pictures. The first is the window display.


Next up is shot of me and the author, James Howard Kunstler.


 Here I am signing.



And finally reading.







Thanks to everyone for coming out.

First Review Is In

Well, the first review is in, from Chronogram, and it's short and sweet:

Comeback Love
Peter Golden
Staff Picks Press, 2010, $16.95




Can long-lost love reignite? Thirty-five years after a low draft lottery number changed his fortunes, Gordon Meyers reconnects with the woman he left behind. He’s divorced, she’s widowed, and both are blindsided by “memory’s guile, its sad and evil magic.” Journalist Golden skillfully interweaves present and past in this heartfelt first novel. Reading 11/6 at 4:30pm, BookHouse, Stuyvesant Plaza, Albany.
