Join us Saturday, April 24 for a day that begins with a bagel breakfast before our 8:30 a.m. departure, a bag chock-full of books & goodies, trivia games & prizes, cookies for the ride home, and a 20% off coupon good April 25 - May 1 at our main store.

In addition, each bus will be hosted by one of our fabulous booksellers, as well as a literary celebrity!

This year's buses include:

The Vorhaus Bus: Hosted by John Vorhaus. He is the author of several books, including The Comic Toolbox, Creativity Rules, Killer Poker and Under the Gun. His latest book is a mystery entitled The California Roll which will be released this March.
Advance praise for The California Roll:

“Whether you're a mook or a snuke, The California Roll is more than entertainment, it's an education. Buyer beware: John Vorhaus will steal your money and hours of your life, giving you nothing in return but a great read fast, funny and very, very smart.”
~ Harley Jane Kozak, Agatha, Anthony, and Macavity award-winning author of A Date You Can't Refuse

The Soli Bus: Hosted by Tatjana Soli. She is a debut novelist and a short story writer. Her novel entitled The Lotus Eaters has debuted to some wonderful reviews.
Take a look at some of the advance praise for her book:

“If you have wondered what it's like to be a combat photographer and what kind of toll such brutal work exacts on the soul, you must read The Lotus Eaters, Tatjana Soli's beautiful and harrowing new novel. Its characters are unforgettable, as real as the historical events in which they're enmeshed.” ~ Richard Russo, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Empire Falls, Bridge of Sighs and That Old Cape Magic

We are so excited to be able to have these two excellent authors join us on our bus trip to the festival, and we are sure you will be fans (if you aren't already) by the time we pull up to the Festival!

Cost of the tickets: $55 + tax
Avoiding traffic & parking, and enjoying a fun-filled day with fellow readers: Priceless!

No children under age 5 are allowed on either bus.

Customers coming to ride the buses will not be able to park in the Vroman's lot during the time they are at the festival unless they have a handicapped placard.

Let us know if you have a preference, or take a leap of faith. Either bus is sure to be a great time!
