About this Event

Calling all teens—or anyone who works with or writes for teens! We are thrilled to celebrate the launch of Jenna Voris’ SAY A LITTLE PRAYER, one of our most anticipated YA titles of 2025: a subversively funny story of one girl taking her church camp by storm, one deadly sin at a time, and a book that perfectly encapsulates the teen psyche. Jenna will be in conversation with award-winning author, Andrew Joseph White, as they talk about writing for today’s teens, how to surprise, delight, and connect, and the importance of queer rep now more than ever. Both authors will take Q&A from the audience at the end and then stay and sign books!

About the Authors:  

Jenna Voris is the author of many young adult books starring ambitious, complicated young women, including EVERY TIME YOU HEAR THAT SONG, a story of love, legacy, and fame that was one of our Summer Reading Guide picks and a hugely popular selection for first Eras book club.

 

Andrew Joseph White is the author of critically acclaimed bestsellers like HELL FOLLOWED WITH US and, most recently, COMPOUND FRACTURE, a queer Appalachian thriller that pulls no punches for teens who see the failures in our world and are pushing for change (just awarded a Printz Honor!).
