The Week in bookish events is up at LAist and it is shaping up to be a mighty fine week. Might I also direct your attention to the right and slightly down, where a bevy of readings are listed for May and June? Angelenos are a lucky bunch to have such a wide range of literary events to attend on just about any night of the week.
Were it not for that clearly stated promise to actually write words on pages (blog pages do not count in this regard), I'd try to attend them all and create some sort of frantic log of the proceedings. Even so, I'm looking forward to seeing many of these writers and after a good long weekend at the book fest, I'm confident I'll be less shy about chatting them up.
