Book lovers wait all year for the L.A. Times Festival of Books and this year features a who’s who of authors and personalities from RuPaul to Henry Winkler, Miranda July to Jonathan Lethem. There’s something for everyone and tons of kids and young adult authors and events, too – including a Turtles All the Way Down screening and panel with John Green. Some events require tickets, so plan ahead.

LAist participates and is a partner of the event. We'll be reporting live from USC on LAist 89.3 FM, and you can come find our booths and say hello!
