LINKS FOR 2021 BOOK FEST
In the wake of the 2020 pandemic, and coming away from what has been one of the worst chapters in our history as a nation, we wanted to lighten the mood a little and go with a happy theme. This year we celebrate love in its many forms: spiritual, romantic, self, parental, friendship and any other kind of love that is undefinable. We want to lift up the voices that tell the stories of love in all its pain and beauty, to celebrate reading and another great love—the love of books!
