"I'm thrilled to be included in James Patterson's The Secret Lives of Booksellers and Librarians . James Patterson was kind enough to come to one of the early Mystery Writers Conferences at the bookstore. I was so in awe of him that I could barely get the courage to speak. In this book, he makes me look smarter than I am. I love it!"-- Elaine Petrocelli, President and Co-owner, Book Passage, " The Secret Lives of Booksellers and Librarians is very touching and beautifully crafted. It is like having the James Patterson Storytelling Fairy Dust sprinkled down upon you and your life. No wait, it IS having the James Patterson Storytelling Fairy Dust sprinkled down upon you and your life!"-- Nina Barrett, Owner, Bookends & Beginnings

Synopsis
This "celebration of the world of books" ( Kirkus ) from New York Times bestselling author James Patterson explores the inner lives of the people who kindle our passion for reading. "When the pandemic started, Patterson launched a movement, #SaveIndieBookstores [and] pledged half a million dollars, and, with the support of the American Booksellers Association and the Book Industry Charitable Foundation, the campaign ended up raising $1,239,595 from more than eighteen hundred donors...Somehow, the bookstore outlived the pandemic. Why? The Secret Lives of Booksellers and Librarians , compiled by James Patterson and Matt Eversmann, suggests a few reasons." - New Yorker To be a bookseller or librarian... You have to play detective. Be a treasure hunter. A matchmaker. An advocate. A visionary. A person who creates "book joy" by pulling a book from a shelf, handing it to someone and saying, "You've got to read this. You're going to love it."
