Well, we’ve been slow in posting August book events, but you haven’t actually missed any yet. August is traditionally a slow month for publishers, and Harvard Book Store appears to be taking the month off; its next listed event isn’t until September 3 (but it’s a doozy—Junot Diaz! zomg! apparently he likes to make September appearances here--and the price has tripled since last year... but now you can get a book for it!). Check Porter Square and Brookline Booksmith ‘till the big H comes back. And definitely "run" to BB on the 23rd!
