SEPTEMBER BOOKPAGE AVAILABLE SOON—
It’s time to say goodbye to Darren Mathews and Attica Locke’s acclaimed Highway 59 mystery series. Elsewhere in the issue, Librarian Amanda Jones reveals what it was like to stand up to book bans, TJ Klune shares what inspired his sequel to The House in the Cerulean Sea and Danzy Senna turns her gimlet eye to the small screen in Colored Television.
Plus, coming in October: BookPage breaks out the pumpkins, cobwebs and cauldrons! We’ll be rounding up the best Halloween reads for kids and adults, highlighting the season’s swooniest paranormal romances and talking to Rivers Solomon about their new take on the haunted house novel. And even more treats are in store, namely interviews with Kwame Alexander, Ramona Emerson and Louise Erdrich.
The Fontana Centennial Committee presents this book as a celebration of our Village’s past century.
Proceeds will support events in 2024 especially, we hope, the return of ‘Music In The Park.’
Please make checks payable to Fontana Centennial Committee
