This past Sunday we hosted NY Times Bestselling RomCom Author, Casey Mcquiston, at the Downtown Library. We had 180+ in attendance for our author talk and book signing and are thankful to all our past and present Metro friends who were in the audience! We've received some really lovely feedback from our community and would love to hear more if it comes your way! I wanted to share some photos from the afternoon and give a special thanks to the following folks for all their hard work to make Sunday so special.
