Debut Author Megan Tady with Annabel Monaghan at Athena Books!

Please join Athena Books to toast Megan Tady’s novel, Super Bloom, a sparkling, heartwarming debut set at an iconic Vermont spa in which the heroine – a massage therapist mourning a lost love – has to fight her way back to happiness.  Annabel Monaghan, author of Athena Books favorite, Nora Goes off Script, will interview Megan. Your ticket includes wine, light dessert and a fabulous evening of fun, conversation and friendship!

Megan Tady is a writer and editor who runs the company Word-Lift. When she’s not scrutinizing copy, she can be found stocking her free neighborhood library, challenging anyone to a dance-off, or stewing over how Portlandia stole all of her jokes. She’s hard atwork on her next novel, Champions for Breakfast, which will also be published by ZibbyBooks. She’s a corn-fed Nebraska gal who now lives in a quaint New England town with her husband and two kids.

In Super Bloom, which will be released on May 2, 2023, massage therapist Joan Johnston struggles with grief. She’s lost the love of her life early into their relationship and questions her path forward when she encounters a new client, the firebrand romance novelist Carmen Bronze. Can a quirky assignment from a demanding, eccentric author help Joan rewrite her life? A heartfelt look at taking second chances in life and in love, Tady’s uplifting debut will have readers rooting for Joan on every page—as well as laughing out loud at her one-of-a-kind wit.
