BK Borison with Jessica Joyce and Susan Lee

Get Good Spirits

*UPDATE: Event Canceled*

We have some unfortunate news: B.K. Borison has to cancel the remainder of her Good Spirits book tour. This includes our event on Thursday, November 13th. We know you were looking forward to this one – we were, too – and we apologize for the disappointment. 

B.K. has kindly offered to send signed bookplates along with an on-theme postcard and sticker that we can include with your ticketed copy of Good Spirits if you would like to convert your ticket into a purchase of the book. (The ticket was the price of the book, so that’s easy to do.) If you are a registered event attendee, please see your email for details.

Along with our friends at Meet Cute Romance Bookshop, Library Shop SD is hosting author B. K. Borison at the Neil Morgan Auditorium, San Diego Central Library @ Joan Λ Irwin Jacobs Common to celebrate the release of Good Spirits! B. K. will be in conversation with author Jessica Joyce and Susan Lee.

About the Book

Fall in love with the Ghost of Christmas Past in this magical romance from the New York Times bestselling author of Lovelight Farms and First-Time Caller.

He’s the Ghost of Christmas Past. She’s not exactly Scrooge.

Ghost of Christmas Past Nolan Callahan intends to spend this holiday haunting like every other — get in, get out, return to his otherwise aimless existence as a ghost awaiting the afterlife. But when he’s faced with Harriet York, the sweetest assignment he’s ever had, he suddenly finds himself wishing for a future.

Harriet York has no idea why she’s being haunted. She’s a good person — or, at least, she tries to be. A people pleaser to her core, she always does what’s expected of her. But as she and Nolan begin to examine her past, they discover there are threads that bind them together— and realize there might be more to moving on than expected.

With the deadline of Christmas Eve fast approaching, will they find the key to their futures in each other’s pasts? Or will they stay firmly in the present, indulging in their unexpected, spirited connection?

About the Speakers

B.K. Borison is the New York Times bestselling author of cozy, contemporary romances featuring emotionally vulnerable characters and swoon-worthy settings. When she’s not daydreaming about fictional characters doing fictional things, she’s at home with her family, more than likely buying books she doesn’t have room for.

Jessica Joyce lives happily-ever-ongoing with her husband and son in the Bay Area. When she’s not writing character-driven, realistic and relatable tales of millennials who are just Doing Their Best while falling in love, you can find her listening to one of her dozens of chaotically curated Spotify playlists, trying out a new skincare face mask, crying over cute animal TikToks, or watching the 2005 version of Pride & Prejudice.

Susan Lee is the author of Julia Song is Undateable (coming 10/28/25 from HarperCollins), and the young adult romantic comedies The Romance Rivalry, Seoulmates, and The Name Drop. A graduate of UC San Diego, Susan built a thriving career as an HR executive, until she realized that writing stories was a more impactful and powerful format to change the world. Now she channels her energy into writing happily ever afters for those historically underrepresented in romance. When she is not writing (or painfully procrastinating from writing), Susan can be found down the rabbit holes of her many obsessions including listening to Kpop, binge watching K‑dramas, collecting sneakers, building mechanical keyboards, and obsessing over her two adorable, but ill-behaved chihuahuas.
