Grub Gone ... PUB?! 2018-19 is the Most Prolific Publishing Year for Grubbies!

We always knew the GrubStreet community was bursting with talent, but the stars have recently aligned to bring more book publications between 2018 and 2019 than we’ve ever seen before from our students, instructors, staff and other members of the community. Just how many new books? So many we’ve lost track! That’s why we’re keeping a running list below and celebrating all the amazing work coming out of our community by throwing a party, Grub Gone...POP, on November 3rd, curating a series of conversations between Grubbie authors with new books on our blog, sharing book news and events, and giving away advanced copies of some upcoming releases at our Boston Book Festival booth.

 

Check out the running list (and we want to emphasize this is a work in progress) of book publications below, tell us about all the books we’ve missed (we'll be excited to add more!), and join the conversation on social by using #GrubGonePop. And, most importantly, remember to support the authors below by reading their work!
