For seventeen-year-old Nora, St. Pete feels like paradise, especially after she meets and wins over Leonard, the shy, brilliant son of transplanted New Yorkers. Nora and Leonard are soon spending balmy days and evenings together, and in her adoring, encouraging company, he grows more confident, even as he remains tender and caring. Leonard's sophisticated mother welcomes Nora into their lives, but his father distrusts her motives.When his suspicions are seemingly confirmed, Nora is forced to cut contact. In her longing and fear, she takes a chance that changes her life, exiling her from the family she loves and setting off a chain of secrets and betrayals that will follow her into adulthood. It is a mature Nora who tells the story of her turbulent past. Wiser and more worldly, she commits to an honest but compassionate account, and to a future based on trusting, first and foremost, herself.Sunlight Finds You is, ultimately, a love story set in the past that has much to say about our present. Richly layered and propulsive, it’s a book about extending forgiveness—for ourselves, and for others—and about refusing to settle for a life that is less than full.About the author:Laura Moriarty is the author of five other novels, including the New York Times bestseller The Chaperone which was made into a feature film by the creators of Downton Abbey. She lives in Lawrence, Kansas, and is a professor of Creative Writing at the University of Kansas. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/doylestown/author-event-with-nyt-bestselling-author-laura-moriarty/100001989928494695 - **Event Categories**: Art, literary-art, Entertainment - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 36.61, max: 36.61, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Doylestown - **state**: PA - **country**: United States - **location**: The Doylestown Bookshop - **lat**: 40.3095688 - **long**: -75.13056489999997 - **full address**: The Doylestown Bookshop, 16 S Main St, Doylestown, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Author Event with NYT Bestselling Author Laura Moriarty - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/de3812e8562ad59ef21faf9feb0f89483c6efb5a2b86810592e7c0585c4a88ba-rimg-w1200-h600-dc2f1504-gmir.jpg?v=1779220212 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Author Event with NYT Bestselling Author Laura Moriarty being held? - **A:** Author Event with NYT Bestselling Author Laura Moriarty takes place on Thu, 06 Aug, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Thu, 06 Aug, 2026 at 07:30 pm at The Doylestown Bookshop, 16 S Main St, Doylestown, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Author Event with NYT Bestselling Author Laura Moriarty? - **A:** Author Event with NYT Bestselling Author Laura Moriarty is organized by The Doylestown Bookshop. - **Q**: What has been the experience of attendees at The Doylestown Bookshop's events? - **A:** Attendees have given The Doylestown Bookshop a rating of 5/5 based on reviews from early attendees on AllEvents.
