Home But Alone No More: Meet & Greet and Late Night Holiday Shopping at The Book Stall

The Book Stall will be open late until 7:00 pm for a festive night of shopping and a Meet & Greet! From 5:30 to 7:00 pm, John Abendshien will be greeting fans and signing copies of his new book, Home But Alone No More: A Memoir From the Owner of the House That Made Movie History. In this captivating account, author John Abendshien tells the story of how he and his family resided in what became one of American cinema’s most iconic houses during the filming of the classic Christmas movie Home Alone. John describes his personal journey through this experience and how, in the end, the Home Alone home wasn’t just his house anymore—it was everyone’s home. And when you’re part of something this big, you’re never really “home alone.”

We'll have drink and snack stations set up around the store for you to enjoy while you get some holiday shopping done! Book sellers will be on hand to talk books and discuss some of their favorite holiday gifts of the season. Join us for a fun night of imbibing, mingling, and shopping!
