The U.S. Book Show 2024: Artificial Intelligence, Audiobooks, and Movie Deals
|
|
by Terry Ballard

|
I had been a BookExpo attendee for decades, so I have tried to be a keen observer of trends in evolving events for publishers, booksellers, and, later on, librarians. When the pandemic hit, there was a feeling that it might all be done for good, but Publishers Weekly came through with a substitute conference called the U.S. Book Show—first as a virtual event, then as an in-person conference. In covering it the past couple of years, I have made a number of predictions about where things might be headed. Sadly, much of that was wrong, but my attempts call to mind a quote from Yogi Berra: "It's hard making predictions, especially about the future."

No one believes in a romantic happily-ever-after more than the book-loving betrothed. Primed by stories of enchantment and souls uniting, literary fans can incorporate their love of books, authors, and reading into their wedding plans. With bookish-themed venues, decorative accents, signature drinks, honeymoon hotels, and more, well-read couples can turn to print for inspiration as they write their first chapter together.
