Shelby Lorman - You're Booked

We are in South Slope, Brooklyn this week to meet author and Instagram superstar Shelby Lorman! Shelby is the genius behind the Awards For Good Boys social media phenomenon, now a book of the same name. We talked to her about disappointing book endings (and letting the author know), marginalia, lending books you never see again and meeting (and befriending) your heroes.
