Bianca Turetsky, author of The Time-Traveling Fashionista And Cleopatra, Queen of the Nile, to visit the downtown Fairfield University Bookstore

Bianca Turetsky will be at
the downtown Fairfield University Bookstore on Saturday, December 7, 2013 from
12:00noon-3:00pm to greet customers and talk about her new young adult novel,
The Time-Traveling Fashionista And
Cleopatra, Queen of the Nile
(December 3, 2103 Poppy). Turetsky will be signing
copies of her new novel at the downtown Bookstore event.



Walk, talk and dress like
an Egyptian. When Louise Lambert tries on a lavender Grecian gown during a
visit to the mysterious Traveling Fashionista Vintage Sale, she feels a
familiar tug and falls back in time, arriving at the dusty base of an enormous
pyramid. She has landed in ancient Egypt…or has she?



It turns out that Louise
is on the legendary Old Hollywood film set of Cleopatra, but her time there is
short-lived. Rummaging through the wardrobe tent, Louse gets her hands on a pearl
necklace that dates back to 51 BC, and she suddenly finds herself whisked away
once more, this time to the ancient city of Alexandria, Egypt. Gold and jewels
shimmer in the Egyptian sunlight, but poisonous snakes and dangerous enemies
also roam the palace halls. Louise quickly learns that life as a handmaiden to
Queen Cleopatra is much more treacherous—and fashionable—than she ever could have
imagined. The Time-Traveling Fashionista
And
Cleopatra, Queen of the Nile is Bianca Turetsky’s third book
in the stylish Time-Traveling Fashionista series, which features time-travel,
friendship and vintage clothing, and has been translated into nine languages.
Twenty five full-color illustrations are featured throughout, bringing the
styles of Ancient Egypt and old Hollywood to life.
