YALLFest 3 — Sat. Nov. 9, 2013

YALLFest will return for the third year on Sat. Nov. 9, 2013, again on Upper King Street in Charleston.

We are hard at work confirming another great line-up of authors and will release the list soon!

Charleston City Paper: “YALLFest returns for another round of YA lit love”


“It’s a little funnier and wilder than some of the more staid book events,” says Margaret Stohl, co-author of Beautiful Creatures and co-organizer of the event. “It’s meant to be an entertaining and wildly enthusiastic book weekend.”
