MY READING LIFE is a love letter to readers allowing all to share in Pat's favorite writers and titles, as well as finding what all was involved in hooking him on reading.
THIS COPY (shown below) was hand signed by Pat Conroy at the store. It is a new, unread first edition opened only for signing and comes with a certificate authenticating the signature. Published in November, 2010 by Nan A. Talese, an imprint of Penguin Random House.
PAT CONROY (pictured below from our Wall of Fame) was one of the store's best friends, and signed every new book for a quarter century here, and regularly signed his older titles. Without question, he was one of the most beloved storytellers in America. We, along with a local author and a local librarian claim credit for introducing him to Sandra, the love of his life. We will miss him, forever pay tribute and are grateful that he signed our books. R.I.P.
