YORK, Pa. — Welcome to a new month of the FOX43 Book Club!
We partner with local libraries to create a Book Club featuring authors from Pennsylvania, highlighting the stories of our surrounding communities.
Jennifer Johnson, library manager at York County Library System's Kreutz Creek Library, joined FOX43 Morning News anchor Gabrielle Mediak to introduce November's selection, "Confessions of a Farmers Market Romeo" by author James Dubbs, who grew up in Gettysburg.
In his second novel, Dubbs explores the "cosmic irony of love, farmers markets, and life’s most perplexing road trip question: What if the wrong Elvis died?" The story follows main character Jim throughout two decades of his life as he searches for love. Despite being set in Gettysburg in the 1970s and 80s, "Confessions of a Farmers Market Romeo" is not a historical novel.
Those who are interested in participating in the Book Club discussion on Nov. 28 can find the book at many online retailers or Dubbs' website. Anyone in the market for a signed copy can message Dubbs on Facebook to request one.
Readers can also ask their preferred library to request the novel from Access PA, a statewide library resource sharing network.
If "Confessions of a Farmers Market Romeo" doesn't get your fingers itching to turn pages, check out the video above for two other book recommendations from Johnson.
We invite you to join Gabby and digital content producer Kayleigh Johnson for their Facebook Live discussion of "Confessions of a Farmers Market Romeo" on Nov. 28 at 10 a.m. The Live will be hosted on the FOX43 Book Club's Facebook group.
