Festival leaders have not announced this year's marquee authors, but they plan to set up outdoor tents to handle most of the in-person events. You are invited to browse the BookPeople bookstore, which carries all festival titles; every book sold supports the authors and the Texas Book Festival and its programs, which include Reading Rock Stars and support for libraries around the state.
Keep an eye on texasbookfestival.org for updates.
