Sara Havens is The Bar Belle for LEO Weekly and writes about everything from the Louisville, Ky., nightlife and hangover cures to the latest in bars, cocktails and watered-down American swill. A personality-driven column that runs every other week in LEO, The Bar Belle was created in 2006, which is, ironically, the year Sara's mother stopped reading the paper. The Bar Belle was named Best Column (for a circulation under 50,000) at the 2011 AltWeekly Awards. This book features 100 of her best columns from 2006-2010.

"The Bar Belle" was released in late 2011 and included the infamous columns from 2006-2010. A Volume 2 has been in the works ever since, and this book completes the Bar Belle's time at LEO Weekly. It includes her columns from 2011-2014. While she's embarking on bigger and better endeavors and maintains her own independent blog (barbelleblog.com), this collection shows us more of her humble beginnings as the leading lady of Louisville's nightlife. The Bar Belle tackles everything from sweet Kentucky bourbon to Derby Dos and Don'ts to hangover cures to Santa Claus. If you've ever enjoyed a drink in a bar, you will find her stories humorous and highly relatable.
