The 2020 UntitledTown Festival has been suspended

March 12, 2020

Statement from the UntitledTown Book and Author Festival Board March 12, 2020 UntitledTown Book and Author Festival thrives because of three values: inclusivity, accessibility, and connection.

We regret any inconvenience and disappointment this may cause for our supporters, attendees, and participants. Simply put, we want all… [Read More]

Jonah’s Hands are coming to UntitledTown

February 28, 2020

by Ami Maxine Irmen   When I was five, my time was spent mostly reading books, playing out in the yard with my family (we were big fans of whiffle ball and touch football), and probably trying to convince my older sister that I was indeed cool enough to warrant some attention from her. What I wasn’t doing was teaching myself to crochet and creating a business that ultimately resulted in 234,000 Instagram followers and a YouTube channel with 62,000… [Read More]

#BookTalk: Lisa Wingate’s unputdownable Before We Were Yours

February 21, 2020

by Grant Cousineau Imagine being just twelve years old, babysitting your siblings one night, only for the police arrive on your doorstep the next day and sweep you off to an orphanage. That’s what happens to Rill Foss in 1939. Her mom, Queenie, is pregnant with twins when something goes wrong during labor. The midwife can’t handle it, so Rill’s dad has no choice but to rush Queenie to the hospital, leaving Rill in charge of her four younger siblings…. [Read More]

Little Libraries – (Likely) Already in a Community Near You

February 14, 2020

by Ami Maxine Irmen   When I was a kid, I used to beg my parents to take me to the library pretty much every day. Of course, this wasn’t always possible despite their willingness to feed my book addiction. So when the city bookmobile started making a stop at the other end of our block, they were thrilled. I would walk down the block with my arms full of books and exchange them for another pile that I would… [Read More]
