Join the Bards Alley booksellers at Chantilly Regional Library as we celebrate the release of “You Weren’t Meant to Be Human” by local author Andrew Joseph White!
Known for his bestselling YA novels, the “Hell Followed with Us” author makes his adult debut with this horror novel, which follows a transgender man’s fight for survival in an alien-infested West Virginia. In a starred review, Publishers Weekly describes it as “a brilliant, page-turning piece of trans splatterpunk body horror.”
White will be in conversation with ndie bookseller and fellow local author Alice Scott. A book signing will follow, with copies of “You Weren’t Meant to Be Human”, White’s backlist, and “Reverent: An Anthology of Divinity” edited by Quinton Li (which includes a short story by Scott) available for purchase.
