Saturday, September 20, 2025 at 3pm at Ridgecrest Books

An event to celebrate life in Shoreline as we listen to Gordon Braun discuss his coming-of-age memoir about growing up in Shoreline in the late 1960's.

Gordon Braun charms his readers with tales of adventure, adversity and heartache in this "cute, poignant, funny" coming of age memoir. 

Welcome to Shoreline, a town that isn't even a town. It's 1968 - the year a thirteen-year-old paperboy discovers a talent that changes the trajectory of his life. It's the year "the world got smaller; danger suddenly less abstract."
