Come and brave the cold and rain at the @bostonbookfest Our table will have brilliant authors coming by to talk about their work. See our schedule: It is so worth it!
For anyone new to the Boston Book Festival, it's a chance to hear from authors and poets, while also connecting with fellow readers. There are workshops, panels, and an outdoor vendor area. A little bit like Readercon.
Planning is also underway to livestream author interviews through the Readercon YouTube channel while at the BBF. Subscribe to the channel if you want to receive notifications.
