I’ve been trying to figure out something this week and I wonder if people can help me. Every year, we hear about the winners of the Kirkus Book Video Awards. The winners are always posted on B&N.com, too. The strange thing about it is that because it’s sponsored by Random House, only Random House books … Read more

So you won’t get to see all the attending Utahns with author L.E. Modesitt and agent Joshua Bilmes (taken … Read more
