BOOKISH TEXAS June 3-11, 2023

The only weekly, statewide calendar of Texas book events. SERIOUSLY.

We’re sharing over 160 events, special events, and exhibitions (plus story times) this week, like we do every week, just fer grins.

2023 KSR Square AD

We’re now accepting submissions of children’s, middle-grade, and young adult titles with a Texas connection (by book content or author). Any pub date welcome!

The Kids’ Summer Reads is once again being offered with pay-what-you-can pricing to meet every author’s budget. We’d rather provide a variety of quality books for our readers’ perusal than a few select titles that only a select-few could afford to market.

Want your book(s) added to the feature? Interested in being a page sponsor or gifting a listing?
