Community Room

The Chicago-based writer discusses her new memoir, "B.F.F.," about the transformative power of friendship, with author Megan McCafferty. Book signing to follow.

This is a hybrid event, offered both in-person and virtually on the library's YouTube channel.  

No registration is required to attend in person. Doors will open at 10:45 a.m. for coffee and pastries. Please enter the Community Room via the doors on Hinds Plaza. The talk will begin at 11 a.m.

Christie Tate will be in conversation with Megan McCafferty.

About the Book: 

After more than a decade of dead-end dates and dysfunctional relationships, Christie Tate’s days of agonizing in group therapy over guys who won't commit are over. Or so she thought. Weeks after giddily sharing stories of her new boyfriend at Saturday morning recovery meetings, Christie receives a gift from Meredith, twenty years older and always impeccably accessorized: a box of holiday-themed scarves as well as a gentle suggestion: maybe now is the perfect time to examine why friendships give her trouble. With Meredith by her side, she embarks on a brutally honest exploration of her friendships past and present, but when Meredith becomes ill and Christie's baggage threatens to muddy their final days, she's forced to face her deepest fears in honor of the woman who finally showed her how to be a friend.

From Publishers Weekly: "Readers will be moved by this outstanding portrait of self-excavation."

About the Speakers:

Christie Tate is the author of the New York Times bestseller "Group," which was a Reese's Book Club selection. She is an essayist and has been published in The New York Times (Modern Love), The Washington Post, Chicago Tribune, McSweeney's Internet Tendency, and elsewhere .

Megan McCafferty writes fiction for tweens, teens and teens-at-heart of all ages. The author of over a dozen novels, she’s best known for "Sloppy Firsts" and four more books in the New York Times bestselling Jessica Darling series.
