Happy Pub Day!

The Bookum team is on the road and hitting the Midwest for the next two weeks (hence the lunchtime drop)!

If you're a book content creator, bookstore host, or author in the Chicago or Missouri areas, we'd love to connect.

Let's grab coffee, a book, some KC BBQ, or even a deep-dish Chicago pizza!

We'd love to connect in person, so let us know if you're around (or recommend some bookstores to check out!).

Today’s Trip:

• 📚 Conversation with Mia Caven

•  📺Apple Books Becomes Home of Reese's Book Club

• 📖 New Charlamagne tha God Book

This Week On Bookum:

What are your thoughts on creator agencies? Would you prefer to have a management team find you brand deals, or are you more of a solopreneur?

This week, we had an in-depth conversation with book content creator Mia Caven about her new book influencer company, Chapters & Pages.

Check out the conversation on our YouTube channel and subscribe to catch all of our great podcast conversations!

This Week in The Book World:

Reese Witherspoon's Hello Sunshine keeps making power moves!

This week it was announced that Apple Books has become the official audiobook home for Reese's Book Club selections.

In this joint partnership, Apple Books has created a dedicated app experience for users to choose books from the club, gain insights from the authors and Reese herself.

Hello Sunshine has had a strong relationship with Apple TV over the years, producing book-to-screen adaptations like Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng.

This Week in Publishing:

No 'Donkey of the Day' this week for Charlamagne tha God, just a new book out!

Radio personality of The Breakfast Club & multiple-time New York Times bestselling author Charlamagne tha God releases his book "Get Honest Or Die Lying."

Summary:

In "Get Honest or Die Lying: Why Small Talk Sucks," Charlamagne takes full command of his new platform, broadening his scope and embracing his life roles as a cultural curator, social commentator, job creator, mental health advocate, and Girl Dad in ways we've never seen before. In his signature irreverent style, he examines the world through his lens, concluding that many of our divisions, unhappiness, and dissatisfactions stem from our failure to have meaningful conversations with each other. pen_spark
