If you're based in Los Angeles and love books and travel, you won't want to miss this event.
Nestled in the heart of Santa Monica is the relative newcomer, Zibby’s Books. Founded by Zibby Owens—a pioneer in the literary space who launched her own publishing company of the same namesake—Zibby’s has quickly become a community staple.
The women-run and founded bookshop has become a gathering place for authors and book lovers alike to bond over prose. This month, Fodor’s Assignments Editor, Eva Morreale, will be joining Senior Editor Nikki Vargas at Zibby’s to discuss Vargas’ new travel memoir, Call You When I Land.
Call You When I Land is a coming-of-age story that promises to take readers on a whirlwind adventure spanning the globe—from Vietnam to Buenos Aires. Pairing lush travel descriptions with unexpected twists and turns, Call You When I Land has a little bit of everything: it’s a love story, a runaway bride tale, a murder mystery, and is jam-packed with wanderlust.
Published in November 2023 by HarperCollins, Call You When I Land has been named a top 50 bestseller by Hudson Books, a best women’s memoir by Glamour Magazine, a top book club pick by Real Simple, and was recommended by Good Morning America, Cosmopolitan, and Forbes.
