Some connections are written in the stars—others are written across time. On April 19 at 12:00 PM, join us at Bailey Books as we welcome Tara Hodgson, author of Chasing Through Time, for a book signing and reading.

Chasing Through Time is a story of friendship, fate, and the invisible threads that bind us together. When Sarah, a modern-day teen, stumbles upon an old computer, she discovers an unexpected link to Emma, a girl living twenty years in the past. As their connection deepens, the two must navigate the complexities of growing up—separated by time but united by shared struggles, self-discovery, and the need to be truly seen. With themes of nostalgia, the power of human connection, and the impact of technology, this novel is both a heartwarming journey and a thought-provoking reflection on life in the digital age.

A Canadian author and longtime teacher, Tara Hodgson has spent years guiding young minds, witnessing firsthand the joys and challenges of adolescence. Her writing is a love letter to those navigating the highs and lows of growing up, whether in the past or present. This is your chance to meet the author, hear an excerpt from her novel, and get a signed copy—or simply step into a world where time bends, friendships defy the years, and every moment matters. We can't wait to see you there!
