We can't wait to welcome her to Gay's the Word! - “It's not that you're not like other girls. It's just that you've never met a girl like you. And then. You do. You meet her. And suddenly. The songs make sense.” It's summertime and 17-year-old Coley is alone, again. Forced to move to middle of nowhere Oregon after losing her mother, she is in no position to risk her already fragile heart. But when she meets Sonya, the attraction is immediate. Coley worries she isn't worthy of love. Up until now, everyone she's loved has left her. And Sonya's never been with a girl before. What if by opening her heart, Coley's risking it all? - Attendees will have an opportunity to meet Hayley and have their books signed, and copies of both Girls Like Girls and Hayley's newest book Where There's Room For Us will be available for purchase from Gay's The Word Bookshop.
