BookCon 2017 Revisited: Watch Videos Featuring Our Authors
BookCon 2017 drew more than 20,000 book-loving consumers to the Javits Center in New York over the course of a weekend (June 3-4), and our Penguin Random House Digital Video team was there, producing terrific videos of key attractions featuring Penguin Random House authors. We are presenting the best of these productions on Igloo, including video footage of the following events that revolved around our authors and books:
