Random House Open House is a seasonal event in New York City dedicated to conversation, connection, and, of course, fantastic books. We bring together a wide range of authors, from blockbuster fiction writers to Michelin-starred chefs, and everything in between, with a mission of fostering a universal thirst for knowledge and a passion for reading.

We couldn't be more excited about our lineup:

• Cooking inspiration from pros we love, Ina Garten (Cook Like a Pro) and Sam Sifton (See You On Sunday)

• How life can shape the stories we write: R. Eric Thomas (Here For It), Susan Burton (Empty), and Cathy Park Hong (Minor Feelings)

• The hottest new fiction: Francesca Serritella (Ghosts of Harvard), Frances Cha (If I Had Your Face), Afia Atakora (Conjure Women), and Amanda Eyre Ward (The Jetsetters)

• The vital importance of slowing down: Celeste Headlee (Do Nothing)

• The power of true stories: Sierra Crane Murdoch (Yellowbird) and Lauren Redniss (Oak Flat)

• All your keto diet questions answered: Rocco DiSpirito (Rocco's Keto Comfort Food Diet)

• Tips for surviving the real-life Shark Tank: Daymond John (Powershift)

In conversation with Kate Winkler Dawson.

I can’t wait to sign copies of The Jetsetters—and Draper James will dress me up!
