SUMMARY:Karen Nelson and Kim Culbertson in Conversation at The Book Seller
DESCRIPTION:Join Karen Nelson in conversation with Kim Culbertson about Karen’s new book The Last Summer at Feather River at the Book Seller in Grass Valley on August 1st at 2:30PM.\nBooks will be available to purchase at the event.\nEVENT ADDRESS:\nThe Book Seller, 107 Mill St, Grass Valley, CA 95945\n \nAbout The Last Summer at Feather River:\nWhat really happened that night?\n​Ten years after an accident that forced her family to close Camp Feather River, Brooke must return to the ranch to care for her grandfather and face the repercussions of their decision. Brooke once loved spending every summer at Feather River, riding horses, swimming in the lake, and helping her grandfather, Charlie, run the youth camp. But she has not set foot on the property since she and her mother abruptly left that night. Once back at the ranch, Brooke discovers that her family has been hiding more than she knew. While struggling to come to terms with what happened—and her part in it—Brooke realizes the accident might not have been an accident at all. Part coming-of-age, part suspense, and part a story of redemption, The Last Summer at Feather River is a novel about damage done, secrets kept, sacrifices made, and whether it can be put back together after it all unravels.\n \nAbout Karen Nelson:\n\nKaren Nelson is the author of the novels The Last Summer at Feather River and The Sunken Town. She is also the co-founder of the nonprofit Writing By Writers where she hosts writing workshops taught by nationally-known, award-winning authors. Her travel writing has appeared in Coast Magazine, Premium, The Orange County Register, and various other publications nationwide. She holds a degree in creative writing from Colby College and has taught writing at the local high school. When not organizing writing workshops, she can be found hiking with her dog, reading, traveling, experimenting in the kitchen, and hosting dinner parties. She lives in the Silicon Valley.\n\nAbout Kim Culbertson:\n\nKim holds an M.S. in Education, an MFA in Fiction, and has been teaching high school since 1997. She is the award-winning author of five YA novels. Her titles Catch a Falling Star; The Possibility of Now; and The Wonder of Us were Scholastic book club selections. She won the Northern California Book Award for YA fiction for Instructions for a Broken Heart as well as had The Possibility of Now named a Bank Street Best Book of the Year. Her first novel for adults, Other People’s Kids (Sibylline 2025) is about (surprise, surprise) teachers and was named a 2025 CALIBA Golden Poppy finalist for Fiction.\n\n
