BOOK'D season five to feature fewer authors, more discussion

LOS ANGELES - Dec. 27, 2016 - PRLog -- Liz D Publicity & Promotions presents the season five premiere of Book'd "The Ultimate Bibliophiles' Night Out" literary event (formerly known as Book'd in Burbank) on Thursday, February 2, 2017, 8:00 P.M. – 9:30P.M. at The Group Repertory/Lonny Chapman Theatre in the NoHo Arts District neighborhood of Los Angeles. Since its 2013 debut, Book'd has treated Los Angeles book lovers to eveningsof author readings, giveaways and tasty treats. As Book'd enters its fifth season, the event will offer a more intimate literary experience. The program was restructured to decrease the number of featured authors from six to four, and to add an informal authors chat moderated by Book'd coordinator Liz Donatelli.

"We decided to shake things up for Book'd season five by adding a casual discussion with the authors so the audience can get to know them better," says Liz Donatelli, Liz D Publicity & Promotions Book Publicity and Literary Events Director. "As moderator, I plan to ask fun and insightful questions on the authors' reading habits, creative inspirations, writing rituals, and their non-bookish pursuits and hobbies. I'm excited to see how the 'Book'd Lovers' respond to this new feature."

Book'd's February program will feature author readings by and a chat with: Gretchen McNeil, acclaimed author of contemporary YA novel I'M NOT YOUR MANIC PIXIE DREAM GIRL; CD Reiss, New York Times, USA Today and Amazon bestselling romance author of MARRIAGE GAMES (THE GAMES DUET, #1); Romina Russell, New York Times bestselling YA sci-fi author BLACK MOON (ZODIAC, #3); and Patricia Smiley, bestselling mystery author of PACIFIC HOMICIDE, the first in a new police procedural series.

The event's media sponsor is Squeedar, a geek-centric guide to events in Los Angeles and San Fernando Valley. Giveaway sponsors include: Geeky Girl Scents, an Etsy store of geeky fandom-themed candles; Inspired by Jane, an online tea and gift shop for Jane Austen fans; The Accidental Cat, an Etsy shop of cat photo cards, and Firefly Candle Company, an Etsy store of book-inspired candles.
