EASTON, PA \u2014 Local author J.A. Marz will host a special book signing for his latest release,\u00a0It\u2019s Sauce, Not Gravy!,\u00a0<\/em>on Saturday, April 18, 2026, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM at the Barnes & Noble in Easton (4445 Southmont Way).<\/p>\n

Following the success of his debut,\u00a0Ciao Amore Mio\u2026The Tale of Gabby and Gio<\/em>, Marz returns with a sequel that dives deep into the heart of Italian-American traditions. The new book explores the warmth of family, the importance of heritage, and the lighthearted yet passionate debate that has divided Sunday dinner tables for generations: is it “sauce” or “gravy”?<\/p>\n

A resident of Bethlehem Township, Marz brings his decades of storytelling to the page, capturing the authentic spirit of Italy and its vibrant cultural roots.<\/p>\n

“This book is about the traditions that keep families connected,” says Marz. “I\u2019m looking forward to meeting readers and fellow book lovers to finally settle the great debate – or at least enjoy the conversation over it.”<\/p>\n
