BookExpo America 2012


BookExpo America (BEA) is the largest publishing event in North America, with the opportunity to meet the authors and learn what's new in the book world and how it is evolving digitally. This year the BEA took place from June 5-7th at the Javits Center. Assouline has always been one of my favorite publishing companies, but I also enjoy visiting Simon & Schuster, Random House, Macmillan, Penguin, Harlequin, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Hachette Book Group and Workman.

There are books for everyone, whether you are interested in fashion, cookbooks, or home design. One book I really need to pick up is The Freelancer's Bible by Sara Horowitz. Here's a list of books I previewed that caught my eye.

Cooking:
Lobster! 55 Fresh & Simple Recipes for Everyday Eating, Brooke Dojny
The Book of Burger, Rachael Ray
Jacques Pepin New Complete Techniques
Taste of Home Best Loved Recipes

The Liddabit Sweets Candy Cookbook, Liz Gutman and Jen King
