JENNIFER MATHIEU
BELLVILLE-The Story Peddler in Bellville will host Houston author Jennifer Mathieu on Friday, Oct. 4, from 6 to 7 p.m. She will read from her de - but adult novel, 'The Faculty Lounge.' This event is free and open to the public. With its ensemble of warm and unforgettable characters, Jennifer Mathieu's "The Faculty Lounge" (Dutton, July 23, 2024), shows readers a different side of school life. It all starts when an elderly substitute teacher at Baldwin High School is found dead in the faculty lounge. After a bit of a stir, life quickly returns to normal-it's not like it's the worst (or even most interesting) thing that has happened within
the building's walls. But when, a week later, the spontaneous scat tering of his ashes on the school grounds catches the attention of some busybody parents, it sets in motion a year that can only be described as wild, bizarre, tragic, mundane, beautiful, and humor -
ous all at once.
