The world’s largest bookfair, Frankfurter Buchmesse, opened its doors last October 16-20, 2024, in Frankfurt, Germany. For worldwide business and trading, it is regarded as the most significant book fair on earth. More than 4,300 exhibitors and an expected 114,000 trade visitors from 131 countries, welcoming rights professionals from a total of 355 agencies and publishers make the Frankfurt Book Fair a place of endless discoveries. On the stages we experienced exciting international voices.
As the Frankfurter Buchmesse celebrates its anniversary for another year of serving the industry, Citi of Books did not miss the chance to join the 76th Frankfurt Book Fair (Frankfurter Buchmesse) in Frankfurt, Germany. This spectacular gathering honors fascinating works and their creators.
With a series of activities prepared, one of the most anticipated this year is the chosen country to be the guest of honor, which is Italy. The country will present not just its diverse, unique qualities as an attractive place to travel but also as a country with a rich literary tradition.
Citi of Books is excited to present books written by our distinguished authors. In our assigned booth, a range of books—from fiction to nonfiction—would be on exhibit. A book included in the gallery was “It Takes Two” by Mindy Hall.
Mindy Hall has spent many years volunteering for non-profit organizations, sitting on their boards of directors and watching the chemistry of groups of people trying to help groups of people. Her salaried jobs have included speech therapy, business manager and teaching math and English. Her current jobs include being a Granny Nanny to her fantastic grandchildren, gardening and being with friends.
Dead secrets shouldn’t be resurrected.
“It Takes Two” is a book that explores how Emily Kristich’s day quickly escalates from a routine shopping trip into a traumatic encounter. As she navigates traffic and parking challenges, Emily stumbles upon a disturbing scene: a man slumped over his steering wheel with a bullet hole in the back of his head. The spirit of altruism was started by Emily Kristich’s social worker mother, Louisa Daniel, who performs community service.
This book aims for its readers to reflect on the disruption in Emily’s life, the chaos of the city streets, and the overwhelming responsibility of managing her family’s needs—a story of murder, secrets, and decisions. As the day progresses, Emily’s thoughts shift from the crime to the nostalgia of her early years with her husband, David, and their challenges together.
