<p>I loved hosting my annual <a href="https://www.zibbyowens.com/p/summer-2026-most-anticipated-list" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Summer Reading List </a>celebration in New York! I invite all authors on my list (see here) to meet each other, share about their books, and connect. <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/zibbymedia/albums/72177720333788022" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Here </a>are the photos so you can feel like you're in the room where it happened! Where else can you get 30 authors in one room pitching books to each other? Enjoy. And share my list! </p><br><p>By the way, if you're someone (like me) who enjoys recommending books and sharing links to all types of products, you should join ShopMy as a creator!
