Mariko Turk Author Event
April 30 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Mariko Turk received her PhD in English from the University of Florida, with a concentration in children’s
literature. She lives in Colorado with her husband and daughter. She is the author of The Other Side of
Perfect and I’ll Be Waiting for You.
Mariko will be at the Estes Valley Library to share her new book, I’ll Be Waiting for You:
Perfect for fans of the tearjerker You’ve Reached Sam, this emotional will-they-won’t-they romance
follows Natalie and Leander, two teens who navigate love, loss, and everything in between during
a fateful summer internship.
Natalie and Imogen are inseparable, and wildly different—Imogen is infuriatingly humble and incredibly
intelligent, while Natalie is brave, jumping into danger and new adventures. Still, one thing ties them
together: their love of the supernatural. Every summer, they vacation with their parents at the famously
haunted Harlow Hotel. Imogen is a true believer, while Natalie sees ghost stories as nothing but pure fun.
Then, Imogen suddenly passes away from an undiagnosed heart condition that no one saw coming, and
Natalie is left to take on the summer before senior year alone.
