          Join us as we welcome Jenna Blum, author of store favorite Those Who Save Us.  She will be in town to kick off the tour for her newest book, Stormchasers.  Stormchasers is a contemporary novel set in the fictional Minnesota town of New Heidelburg; the city of Minneapolis; and the lonely, majestic rural corridor of Tornado Alley. The novel focuses on the Hallingdahl twins, a brother and sister who are both fascinated with severe weather. The brother, a stormchaser, is also bipolar, and his sister is his caretaker; when the brother’s disorder causes a terrible event, the sister struggles with how to keep it and its aftermath a secret. As the novel follows how the twins’ bond twists and changes, The Stormchasers explores the question of how much we owe our siblings—and at what cost to ourselves.
