“When I die, you’re all going to starve.” — Gus Constantellis’ mom Adventures by the Book® invites you to join us for a heartwarming and hilariously honest My Greek Mom’s Recipes Adventure featuring Greek American comedian, writer, and storyteller Gus Constantellis. This special evening, hosted at the Coronado Public Library, brings Gus into conversation about his debut cookbook, "My Greek Mom’s Recipes: She Died. I Wrote This Cookbook" — a moving and laugh-out-loud tribute to his larger-than-life mother. This intimate evening offers readers the opportunity to go beyond the punchlines and explore the heart behind the humor. Gus will share stories about growing up in a first-generation Greek American household, the inspiration behind the cookbook, and how food, grief, and comedy intersect in powerful and unexpected ways. Whether you love culinary memoirs, cherish family traditions passed down through recipes, enjoy sharp cultural commentary, or are simply looking for an evening filled with laughter and connection, this event is designed for you. Come with friends, bring your book club, or join us solo — everyone is welcome in our community of passionate, curious readers. Your Adventure includes an engaging author conversation, audience Q&A, book signing, and the opportunity to purchase copies of "My Greek Mom’s Recipes" for a personalized signature.
