On Tour 02/09/27-03/08/27 “Tripping Through Stars” by Lisa Binsfeld

Release Date: February 15, 2027

About The Book:

Kaya Blue Calloway literally bears the scar—down her left arm—of growing up with a pot-smoking mother who refused to be called Mom. She’s certain that Margo’s hippie-mystic parenting is the reason she’s afraid to have kids. Why she’s about to lose the man she’s in love with. And why she lost Carlie, her only childhood friend, whose silver-spoon life Kaya envied.

Now, in 2002, eighteen years after the summer that ended their friendship, Kaya is blindsided by an invitation—to sprinkle Carlie’s ashes in Green Bay. She sees it as a sign. And the last remaining thread to her beloved friend. Ignoring the complications, Kaya returns to Door County—and Margo—for the service. Her plan: Make peace with the past so she can confidently move into the future. High hopes for a four-day visit, especially with everyone tiptoeing around the truth.

But Kaya is about to discover that trust funds don’t prevent childhood scars. They just make it easier to keep them hidden.

Heart wrenching and darkly humorous, Tripping Through Stars will transport you: Back to the early 2000s… to the watery haven of Door County and the blue-sky vistas of Arizona… into the life of a wry young artist facing irrevocable choices that will shape the rest of her life.

About The Author:

Lisa Binsfeld writes book club fiction that is both humorous and heartfelt. Her novels feature smart yet deeply flawed protagonists facing life-changing choices—in vibrant settings inspired by real-world places.

A Hoosier by birth, Lisa graduated from Indiana University before moving to Phoenix where she and her husband raised three pretty remarkable kids. She has worked as a copywriter and layout artist, magazine editor, library assistant, substitute teacher, PTO president, and in too many school volunteer jobs to count.

Currently, she volunteers for the Women’s Fiction Writers Association. When she isn’t writing, Lisa is probably catering to the whims of her obstinate Parti Yorkie, or reading while sipping an Arizona wine, or planning her next trip… which will probably spark the idea for another book. https://lisabinsfeld.com/
