SUMMARY:Author Event: Jaime Thomas
DESCRIPTION:Invitation Bookshop welcomes Jaime Thomas in conversation with Kendare Blake. This event includes time for audience Q&A\, and the opportunity to get your books signed. \nRSVP requested. \nABOUT THE BOOK: \nOnly the darkest and most dangerous of Mages are sentenced to pass through the gate to Asperfell. Not one has ever returned. Never did Briony dream she might set foot in the otherworldly prison of Asperfell. She was\, after all\, neither Mage nor criminal. She was simply her father’s little whirlwind—fingers smudged with ink\, dresses caked with mud—forever lost in a book or the spirit-haunted woods surrounding her family’s country estate. But Briony always had a knack for showing up where she was least expected. Only by braving the gate of Asperfell could Briony hope to find the true heir to the throne of Tiralaen and save her kingdom from civil war. And so\, she plunges into a world of caged madmen and demented spirits\, of dark magic and cryptic whispers… and of a bleak and broken prince with no interest in being rescued. Hauntingly beautiful and lavishly told\, Asperfell is a must-read for fans of Jane Austen who always wished she’d dabbled in blood magic. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR: \nJamie Thomas began crafting stories in the fourth grade with a tale of a brother and sister who accidentally bring the birds on their hotel wallpaper to life. Even though she ended with the cliched “It was all a dream” gimmick\, she still won a regional young writers competition that year\, thus beginning a lifelong love affair with the written word. A certified Language Arts teacher in the state of Washington\, Jamie holds a Master’s degree in English Education and did her graduate research in the area of gender equality in high school literary curriculum. Jamie is an avid lover of Victorian novels and poetry\, Gothic Romanticism\, and feminist literature\, as well as epic female-led fantasy and historical fiction. Jamie aims to smash the patriarchy one novel at a time\, creating characters and worlds that inspire\, empower\, and elevate women. Previously\, Jamie studied opera and received her formal training at the University of Montana and the San Francisco Conservatory of Music\, and she still enjoys performing occasionally\, as well as teaching vocal technique. She lives in Wenatchee\, Washington\, with her husband\, daughter\, two enormous dogs\, and two mischievous cats

SUMMARY:Poetry Reading and Open Mic with Michael Magee
DESCRIPTION:Invitation Bookshop welcomes Michael Magee for a poetry reading and signing\, followed by an Open Mic. \nABOUT THE BOOK: \nMichael Magee opens Crowed with a coffee-spill Rorschach crow\, its bill dripping honey and mayhem. These poems travel across ethereal borders and find a man in honey who finds his way home from the pub after too many hours\, who finds rain is no sorrow. And too\, there is the mayhem of devastating fires\, a man with a hose\, where every road is a dead end\, or the woman in “Bench Warrant” who is “rising on her own / after last night’s collapse / the wind gone out of her.” Crowed’s shiny objects are life’s joys and sorrows. They are a witch in the woods and the ginger cat dreaming of a perfect love. -Kevin Miller\, author of Spring \nMeditation and Vanish Crowed should be read slowly and luxuriously for each poem is deeply layered and gorgeously told in stunning language. The subject matter is varied and intriguing\, from encounters with birds to travels through Ireland and back through history. Each poem is a delight. In its entirety\, the book is a wonder. -Maggie Kennedy\, author of The Unraveling Script \nABOUT THE AUTHOR: \nCrowed is Michael Magee’s fifth collection of poetry and a Sally Albiso Prize finalist. In this collection he goes back to his Celtic roots\, family\, and friends and pays homage to those he’s learned from. His most recent third third and fourth collections were Shiny Things and Budapest After Dark\, published in 2025. His plays and poetry have been produced here and in England and Greece. New work appears in Open Book: Western Washington Poets Network Anthology and Cirque. He conducts writing workshops and appears on KTAH FM RadioTacoma\, VerseDaily.Org\, and The Writer’s Almanac. Michael’s poems reflect his interest in nature\, theatre\, music\, literature\, and travel. His mentors and friends have been David Wagoner\, Ben Drake\, and William Matchett\, professors emeriti at the University of Washington. His musical influences include: Franz Liszt\, Chopin\, Lou Reed\, Leonard Cohen\, Marianne Faithfull\, and Townes Van Zandt. He has lived in England and traveled in Ireland as well as Hungary\, Morocco\, and Turkey. He is recipient of a Jack Straw Residency and lives in Tacoma\, Washington.

SUMMARY:Helping Trans Children Thrive Author Panel
DESCRIPTION:Helping Trans Children Thrive Author Panel\n\n\n\nFriday Jan 23rd\, 2026\n\n\n6:30 PM\n\n\n–\n\n\n7:30 PM\n\nCommunity Event\n\n Invitation Bookshop\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP REQUIRED. \nInvitation Bookshop welcomes Aidan Key\, founder of Gender Diversity and TransFamilies\, in conversation with Ren Cedar Fuller\, a parent facilitator at TransFamilies\, a national organization that provides support and resources for families raising gender diverse children. \nA few weeks after the inauguration\, Ren called Aidan to say she was scared to bring her book about parenting a trans child into the world. Aidan said now is the time to share our hard but joy-filled stories about people who live outside society’s narrow boxes. \nAidan’s most recent book\, Trans Children in Today’s Schools (Oxford 2023)\, demystifies the often volatile\, polarizing debates surrounding the support and inclusion of trans and nonbinary children. \nRen’s debut book\, Bigger: Essays (Autumn House Press 2025)\, explores how her world expanded because of her father’s neurodiversity\, her child coming out as transgender\, a disability that left her unable to cry\, and her immigrant mother’s Alzheimer’s—which seemed to magically carry her back to childhood in Ecuador. \nKindly RSVP below\, as space is limited.
