Published on 9/4/2020 at 2:20 PM

ICYMI, September is Literacy Month! The importance of literacy and books is immeasurable, and they're some of the most important gifts to pass on to future generations. This month is all about encouraging everyone in your life to learn a new word, tuck into a book, and discover the power of reading.

To celebrate Literacy Month, we invited seven remarkable authors — Christina Lauren, Morgan Jerkins, Nina LaCour, Jennifer Niven, Nancy Jooyoun Kim, and Roshani Chokshi — to talk about what literacy means to them, and how reading and writing have empowered them in their own lives. Join us Sept. 15 at 4 p.m. EST over on our POPSUGAR Book Club Twitter feed, where this live Q&A will be going down. Be a part of the conversation, share how reading has impacted you, and ask these authors your burning questions by tweeting with #PSAsksAuthors. And if you're looking for some books to add to your TBR list, we've got you covered.
