As the summer peaks, we are hard at work contacting authors for next year's Columbia County Reads Together program.
Our reference staff has contacted several potential authors for this annual event including:
David Baldacci-author of Absolute Power and The Simple Truth. He writes legal thrillers that weave suspense with the nation's most powerful institutions.
Nevada Barr-author of the Anna Pigeon series of mysteries which features a female park ranger as its protagonist.
Charlaine Harris-author of the Sookie Stackhouse series of Southern Vampires (the inspiration for the TV series True Blood).
Carl Hiassen-author of the sharply humorous thrillers Double Whammy, Sick Puppy, and Nature Girl.
Columbia County Georgia's annual celebration of books and literacy for all ages.
