Every great book begins with an idea, but every memorable reading journey begins with the opportunity to discover it. That is exactly what makes the Hong Kong Book Fair 2026 such a remarkable event. Bringing together readers, authors, publishers, educators, and literary professionals from around the world, the fair has become one of Asia’s premier celebrations of literature and publishing. More than an exhibition of books, it is a place where stories cross borders, ideas spark meaningful conversations, and new voices find readers eager to turn the very first page.
Organized by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), this year’s fair takes place from July 15–21, 2026, at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC) under the inspiring theme, “Cultural Legacy | Joyful Journeys.” Alongside an impressive lineup of internationally renowned authors, cultural seminars, exhibitions, and interactive programs, the event continues to promote reading as a gateway to discovering different cultures and perspectives.
As the publishing industry continues to evolve, international book fairs remain essential spaces where creativity and collaboration meet. They provide authors with opportunities to introduce their work to wider audiences, while giving readers access to an extraordinary range of books that reflect diverse cultures, perspectives, and experiences. Whether you’re searching for an inspiring memoir, a compelling novel, an educational resource, or a beautifully illustrated children’s book, the Hong Kong Book Fair offers countless opportunities to discover stories that inform, entertain, and inspire.
For Citi of Books, participating in the Hong Kong Book Fair is more than showcasing publications on an international stage. It reflects our ongoing commitment to supporting authors throughout their publishing journey and connecting their work with readers across the globe. Every title displayed at our exhibit represents countless hours of creativity, dedication, and passion. We believe every author has a story worth sharing, and every reader deserves the opportunity to discover a book that leaves a lasting impression.
Among the titles proudly featured by Citi of Books this year is “It Takes Two” (Spanish Edition) by Mindy Hall. This remarkable work exemplifies the diversity of voices that define our growing collection, offering readers a unique perspective through engaging storytelling, thoughtful insights, and a message that resonates beyond its final chapter. We are delighted to introduce this title to the international audience attending the Hong Kong Book Fair and invite visitors to experience the author’s work firsthand.
“It Takes Two” by Mindy Hall follows a quiet town shaken by a shocking murder discovery, revealing how hidden secrets and moral choices can upend ordinary lives in an instant. In this taut suspense novel, Hall explores the fragile line between safety and chaos—and the unexpected strength found in human connection.
“It Takes Two” is a mystery novel by Mindy Hall and part of the Louisa Daniel series. The story follows Emily Kristich, a woman juggling many roles—mother, volunteer, and comptroller for her husband’s business—when she suddenly finds herself pulled into a troubling and dangerous mystery connected to the nonprofit organization she serves.
Emily’s path is strongly influenced by her mother, Louisa Daniel, whose legacy of service inspires Emily to join the board of a nonprofit called Sustain and Shelter. While trying to balance leadership duties with raising her children and supporting her husband’s business, Emily begins to notice unsettling tensions within the organization. Suspicious board members and a string of mysterious deaths force her to confront secrets she never expected, and with Louisa’s guidance, she works to uncover the truth and protect the cause she believes in.
What makes the novel especially engaging is the way it blends domestic reality with genuine suspense. Emily isn’t a traditional detective—she’s a mother and community member first—which makes the danger feel more immediate and personal. The relationship between Emily and Louisa adds emotional weight, turning the mystery into a story about legacy, trust, and service as much as crime.
As thousands of readers make their way through the exhibition halls this year, we warmly invite you to visit the Citi of Books exhibit and explore the many stories waiting to be discovered. Whether you are looking for your next unforgettable read, searching for fresh literary voices, or simply celebrating the joy of books, we look forward to welcoming you and sharing the stories that continue to connect readers around the world.
