The only thing better than a favorite book? A room The only thing better than a favorite book? A room full of people who love it, too. 💛📚

Kelly Yang brought our reading community together for Words & Pictures last night to celebrate the release of "Front Desk: The Graphic Novel," and we’re still smiling. There’s something special about stepping away from the pages to meet the person whose words have kept you reading long past bedtime.

Thank you, Kelly and to all the readers, families, and educators who spent the evening with us; to @pittofficial for letting us host the event in their beautiful Frick Fine Arts Building; and to our sponsor, @shadysideacademy, for helping make this free event possible.

Signed copies of Kelly's graphic novel, "Front Desk," are available for purchase at @cityofasylumbooks.
