What if you could do it all over again? In TWICE, Mitch Albom spins a captivating, time-bending love story about second chances and the choices that define us. Alfie Logan has a magical gift: he can relive any moment—but each do-over comes with lasting
consequences. At first, he uses his power to fix mistakes and win hearts, especially that of Gianna, the woman he believes is his soulmate. But when he learns that once undone, love can’t return, Alfie faces a life-altering decision. Told with Albom’s signature heart and insight, TWICE is a powerful tale of love, regret, and the cost of “what if.” Albom will be joined in conversation with NWS co-founder and #1 New York Times bestselling author Doug Stanton.
Author, screenwriter, philanthropist, journalist, and broadcaster Mitch Albom is an inspiration around the world. His fiction and non-fiction books — which include eight #1 New York Times bestsellers — have collectively sold 42 million copies worldwide in 48 languages.
Doors open at 6 p.m. with live music and a cash bar. The event begins at 7 p.m. with live music and includes a Q&A and author signing. Each ticket comes with a copy of Twice. Please note: signed books are only available at the live event.
