The Ocean County Library invites fans of the best-selling “Ash Princess” series to join a virtual chat with its creator, Laura Sebastian, on Thursday, May 13, at 6 p.m.

The program is part of the library’s ongoing “Dive into YA: It’s Not Just for Teens” series, which aims to show how real issues, vivid writing, diverse characters and imaginative concepts propel Young Adult literature beyond traditional age categories.
