Local author Bill Levy will be here to sign copies of his book, Beyond the Beach.

"Beyond the Beach: The Wit and Wisdom of Nevil Shute" offers readers the opportunity to experience Nevil Shute.

British novelist Nevil Shute (1899-1960) is remembered primarily for his novel "On the Beach." But he wrote over twenty other fascinating novels that are still extremely relevant today.Shute had the unique capacity to combine an astute and pragmatic knowledge of technology with an optimistic humanism and, quite often, with a compelling sense of mysticism. His books continually emphasize the power of the individual to shape history while his genuine and generous protagonists provide excellent heroic prototypes. Nevil Shute had an uncanny ability to predict the future. He also had the skill to sculpt stories that open up his readers' minds.

Spiritual author Judith Hugg will be here to speak and sign copies of her book, To See the Sky: Vignettes of Grace.

How good is your spiritual sight? Twenty-twenty? Or are you getting a little nearsighted, resigned to just squint at the dusty road ahead? If your spiritual vision has gotten a little fuzzy, Judith Hugg's To See the Sky: Vignettes of Grace will open your eyes to see the gifts that God can impart even in the darkest of times. In this humorous yet poignant memoir, Judith Hugg recalls emotional moments from her less-than-ideal childhood and ponders the approaching unknowns of aging. She tells stories of growing up with a beloved but schizophrenic mother and angry father who left her with more questions in life than answers. Yet through it all, Judith learned to find God in the ungodly things of life. Judith's conversational tone and skillful storytelling will lure you in from the start, and her inspirational vignettes will leave you laughing and longing To See the Sky.
