Amy Reed at Diesel Bookstore

Diesel, A Bookstore in Oakland welcomes local author Amy Reed to the store to read from and sign her new novel, Crazy, on Tuesday, June 12th at 7pm.

Crazy is a thrilling new novel from the author of the acclaimed books Beautiful and Clean. Connor knows that Izzy will never fall in love with him the way he’s fallen for her. Somehow he’s been let into her crazy, exhilarating world and become her closest confidante. But the closer they get, the more Connor realizes that Izzy’s highs are too high and her lows are too low. As Izzy’s behavior gets increasingly erratic and self-destructive, Connor gets increasingly desperate to stop her from plummeting. He knows he can’t save her from her pain - but what if no one else can?

Amy Reed was born and raised in and around Seattle. After a brief stint at Reed College, she moved to San Francisco and spent the next several years serving coffee and getting into trouble. She eventually graduated from film school, promptly decided she wanted nothing to do with filmmaking, returned to her original and impractical love of writing, and earned her MFA from New College of California. Amy currently lives in Oakland. Find out more at amyreedfiction.com or follow her on Twitter at @amyreedfiction.
