Bellevue Avenue Branch -

Join authors Roan Parrish and Timothy Janovsky with moderator Hannah Walker in a discussion about everyone's happily ever after and how LGBTQIA+ books are making a splash in the romance book world!

Join Roan Parrish, author of The Holiday Trap, and Timothy Janovsky, author of Never Been Kissed. Moderator Hannah Walker will lead them in a spirited discussion about everyone's happily ever after and how LGBTQIA+ books are making a splash in the romance book world! In collaboration with Out Montclair and Watchung Booksellers.

Timothy Janovsky is a queer, multidisciplinary storyteller from New Jersey. He holds a bachelor’s degree from Muhlenberg College and a self-appointed certificate in rom-com studies (accreditation pending). When he’s not daydreaming about young Hugh Grant, he’s telling jokes, playing characters, and writing books. He’s the author of Never Been Kissed and You’re a Mean One, Matthew Prince. Follow him on social media for more.

Roan Parrish is gradually attempting to write love stories in every genre. When not writing, she can usually be found cutting her friends’ hair, meandering through whatever city she’s in while listening to torch songs and melodic death metal, or cooking overly elaborate meals. She loves bonfires, winter beaches, minor chord harmonies, and self-tattooing. One time she may or may not have baked a six-layer chocolate cake and then thrown it out the window in a fit of pique.

Hannah Walker is a writer, columnist, and professional theater arts marketer based in Asbury Park. When she isn't indulging her parasocial relationship with William Shakespeare, she is unironically watching the Hallmark Channel and enjoying year-round "beach reads.
