Read Harder Book Group Recap: August 2016

Jenn Northington

Director, Editorial Operations

Jenn Northington has worked in the publishing industry wearing various hats since 2004, including bookseller and events director, and is currently Director of Editorial Operations at Riot New Media Group. You can hear her on the SFF Yeah! podcast nerding out about sci-fi and fantasy. When she’s not working, she’s most likely gardening, running, or (obviously) reading. Find her on Tumblr at jennIRL and Instagram at iamjennIRL.

This month’s Read Harder Book Groups are sponsored by Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo and Penguin Random House Audio.


August’s Read Harder meet-ups featured lots of beverages and even more books! Reporting in from Toronto, Chicago, Boston, New York, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia, we’ve got the pictures and tweets to prove it. Come talk books with us next month, won’t you?
