Haley Jakobson presents Old Enough

Greenlight is delighted to welcome Haley Jakobson to the store to present the paperback launch of her beloved and bestselling Old Enough, a novel about a young bisexual woman who is pulled between a new sense of community and loyalty to a friendship she’s outgrown. With a singularly funny, heartfelt voice, Old Enough explores queer love, community, and what it means to be a sexual assault survivor. Haley Jakobson has written a love letter to friendship and an honest depiction of what finding your people can feel like—for better or worse. Haley discusses her work, along with a reading and book signing.
