Every year at Book Expo, a program called Shout 'N Share features a panel of librarians who present forthcoming books that have caught their attention. Though Book Expo was cancelled, Booklist hosted this virtual book presentation on Wednesday, July 22nd, with over 1,400 librarians in attendance.
Panelists included: Donna Seaman, Booklist, Adult Books Editor; Robin Bradford from Pierce County Library System in WA; Allison Escoto from The Center for Fiction, Brooklyn, NY; Sharon Fason from the Chicago Public Library; and Sara Martinez from the Nathan Hale Library in Tulsa, OK.
The library marketing team sent reading material to each panelist prior to the event, tailored to their reading tastes. We are happy to announce the following HarperCollins titles that were chosen by the panelists. This list was sent to all registrants and also included in The Booklist Reader, which has a readership of 45,000 monthly visits.
HarperCollins has participated in this program for many years and our books have been well-represented. But this year is extraordinary. We’ve never had this many must-read titles called out by the panel of librarians.
Congratulations to our authors on the list!
