Thank you for your continued enthusiasm - it is the driving force behind these dynamic literary afternoons!

Where the Sidewalk Ends Bookstore has hosted authors in the Author Literary Luncheon Series on Cape Cod since Summer 2008, in what has grown to be an exceptional combination of authors and readers in a gorgeous setting overlooking Pleasant Bay.  We are currently working with exceptionally talented authors for another season of talks in a book-loving atmosphere at the renovated five-star Wequassett Resort. 

Thank you for your continued support of this unique experience of bringing authors and readers together over a gourmet meal! You can also learn more about Past Featured Authors here and see quotes below that capture the enthusiasm and energy of these special author events.
