“FAST READERS: There are instant books and then there's Book: The Sequel, commissioned by the Perseus Books Group. The books are organized and published within 48 hours, with finished copies produced and distributed at BookExpo America. Readers contributed such opening lines to the imagined sequels of classics: "Call me, Ishmael!" for Moby Dick's Guide to Dating at Sea.”

“Not only was a final version of the paperback edition delivered on that timeline, arriving dramatically in the Perseus booth at 4 p.m., but thanks to the creativity and participation of numerous partners (including BEA attendees), multiple formats of Book: The Sequel were created at hyper-speed as well. These included a digital audio version; editions in large print, Braille and on several e-book platforms; and complementary marketing tools like a website and reading group guide...."Part of the reason we did this was to make BEA fun," said Susan Weinberg of PublicAffairs. It worked.”
