AUTHORAMA
Authorama is our annual celebration of the writers and books we love. Born out of the pandemic with virtual author talks, Authorama features intimate interviews, occasional readings and Q&As that give audiences a chance to interact with the authors.
Authorama has grown to include in-person author appearances and our partnership with the Library Speakers Consortium that we call Authorama 365.
Past featured authors include Andrew Aydin (March), Gloria Chao (Rent a Boyfriend), Saeed Jones (How We Fight for Our Lives), Caroline Kepnes (the You series), Yaa Gyasi (Transcendent Kingdom), David Yoon (Super Fake Love Song), among many others
