Read them everywhere, meet them in Brooklyn! Three top web-based literary publications (and Tumblr super-users) invite you to meet your internet friends in person for chatting, drinking, and dancing to kick off the most bookish week in Brooklyn. Guest DJs and free drink specials enhance the East Coast vs. West Coast faceoff, and everybody wins!

The Brooklyn Book Festival is the largest free literary event in New York City, presenting an array of national and international literary stars and emerging authors. One of America’s premier book festivals, this hip, smart diverse gathering attracts thousands of book lovers of all ages to enjoy authors and the festival’s lively literary marketplace.

Presented by Tumblr, Electric Literature, The New Inquiry, and The Los Angeles Review of Books.
