Meet Mary Shyne, for YOU AND ME ON REPEAT

We’re extremely thrilled to spotlight Mary Shyne, creator of the fun time-traveling Rom-Com YOU AND ME ON REPEAT for a very special LIVE and IN-PERSON interview / Audience Q&A / Signing on Sunday July 6th at 10am PST as part of the Comix Experience Graphic Novel of the Month club!

Attendance is free, and open to all!

Here is the book’s description: In this swoony and hilarious debut rom-com graphic novel, two former friends are trapped in a time loop together, repeating their high school graduation day over and over and over. Chris O'Brien has a genius plan: If he can share the perfect first kiss with his crush, Andy, then of course he'll break free from the time loop that has him repeating graduation day over and over... and over. Alicia Ochoa thinks Chris's plan is doomed. Valedictorian and a total nerd, she knows it'll take more than a kiss to escape the loop they're trapped in together. Besides, Chris may be a hopeless romantic, but Alicia doesn't think he has a real shot with Andy. Once close friends, Alicia and Chris have history-lots of it. As they got older, the pair fell out after Chris ditched her for the "cool kids" and left her in the dust. But when you're looping side by side, you never know if friendship might rekindle or what new feelings could spark along the way.
