This year, the Lower Merion Library System’s One Book, One Lower Merion community reading program will feature author Harlan Coben and his book, Plot Twist: Life, Craft, and the Messy First Draft. The program invites readers of all ages to come together to hear Coben in conversation with Alan Drew explore the writing process, storytelling, and the unpredictable twists of life, followed by a Q&A and book signing.

In “Plot Twist,” Harlan Coben pulls back the curtain on his creative process. Through personal stories, candid reflections, and practical advice, Coben shares the challenges and triumphs of writing, emphasizing that both life and storytelling are full of unexpected turns and imperfect beginnings. The book is both an inspiration for aspiring writers and a celebration of embracing uncertainty and creativity.
