Sacramento is buzzing with excitement as the annual Sacramento Book Festival returns this weekend at the Scottish Rite Masonic Center. This year, it’s aiming to be the largest festival yet, featuring over 250 local authors ready to share their tales. With everything from romantic novels to spine-chilling horror, there’s a genre for every book lover to explore.
Headliners include some big names like Kim Stanley Robinson and Gail Carriger, who will engage the audience throughout the day. Attendees can look forward to panel discussions, readings, and, of course, the chance to meet their favorite writers in an intimate setting.
But it’s not all about the books alone! The festival is partnering with the Mustard Seed School to organize a book drive, encouraging community members to contribute to a great cause supporting children experiencing homelessness. With free admission and a lineup packed with literary talent, this event is shaping up to be a delightful weekend for all ages. Just think: a place where you can rub elbows with acclaimed authors while supporting literacy is a win-win!
