Join us May 4 for LJ’s Day of Dialog, the most anticipated librarian gathering of the Spring! Our daylong program of author panels and in-depth conversations will keep you informed, inspired, and entertained and provide insight into industry trends as you work to grow and diversify your collections.
Big fiction panels range from “Mothers in Fiction” to “What’s Past Is Progue,” with “Mysteries” including Ann Cleeves’s latest DI Matthew Venn title (The Raging Storm) and Tiger mom Amy Chua’s first venture in the genre (The Golden Gate). Alice Hoffman’s The Invisible Hour, which enfolds Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter in a later story, is among five titles lighting up “Books Within Books.”
Nonfiction ranges from “Extraordinary Lives” to “Taking the Risk To Bloom,” with titles including Stephanie Land’s next memoir (Class) and Tiya Miles’s Wild Girls: How the Outdoors Shaped the Women Who Challenged a Nation. Douglas Preston’sThe Lost Tomb: And Other Real-Life Stories of Bones, Burials, and Murder, among the titles featured in “History Lessons,” is the thriller writer’s first historical nonfiction collection.
