As the pages of history turn, we find ourselves reflecting on a remarkable milestone—the 30th Los Angeles Times Festival of Books, the largest book festival in the United States, held on April 26-27, 2025. Set against the stunning backdrop of the University of Southern California campus, this annual celebration of literature brought together thousands of book lovers, authors, and industry professionals for a weekend brimming with literary magic.
Attracting around 150,000 attendees from Southern California and beyond, the festival was a testament to the enduring appeal of literature and the community it fosters. Each event, each conversation, and each shared moment contributed to a rich tapestry of experiences that celebrated the diverse voices and stories that shape our world.
This year, Citi of Books was thrilled to be part of this vibrant gathering, where the love for literature was palpable in the air. Whether you were a lifelong bibliophile or a curious newcomer exploring the world of books, the festival provided a unique opportunity to connect with fellow enthusiasts and share our passion for the written word.
As we look back on this unforgettable weekend, we invite you to join us in reliving the highlights of Citi of Books’ gallery during the 30th Los Angeles Times Festival of Books—a true celebration of the literary arts! A book included in the gallery was “Fox In the City” by Daniel Cabrera.
Poet and fiction novelist Daniel Cabrera loves to write character-driven stories. His debut novel ‘Fox In The City’ is an urban fantasy where the titular character is transformed from a fox to a human boy. He also has a collection of poems he is working on getting published alongside another novel, this time about spirits in the afterlife and their escape.
“Fox In The City” by Daniel Cabrera is a delightful and enchanting story that captivates you right from the start. It follows the journey of Tom, a young fox who is magically transformed into a 12-year-old boy by a witch’s spell. With summer as his deadline, Tom sets out on an emotional and enlightening quest to understand what it truly means to be human.
The plot is refreshingly original, and Cabrera skillfully weaves elements of fantasy and reality to create a world that is both magical and emotionally resonant. As Tom teams up with Nora, a fellow orphan, their adventures are laced with wonder, laughter, and moments of tension, capturing the complexities of growing up.
Told from the perspective of someone new to the human experience, the story offers a powerful and moving reflection on life, friendship, and personal growth. The characters are rich and relatable, with Tom’s inner journey especially compelling. The prose is graceful and vivid, painting scenes that feel both imaginative and grounded.
Blending themes of magic, identity, and transformation, the book has a timeless charm reminiscent of classic coming-of-age stories. It’s a fantastic read for audiences of all ages, particularly those who appreciate fantasy that carries emotional weight. If you’re searching for a touching and imaginative tale, “Fox In The City” by Daniel Cabrera is one you won’t want to miss.
