Well isn’t this some HAPPY news!!!
Thanks so much to everyone who’s bought, read, shared, recommended ALL THE MEN I’VE LOVED AGAIN and come to events. Hearing from so many readers this week has been incredible. The overall response to this little love story (times two!) has me over here dancing to Ms. Mary J and feeling fine, fine, fine, ooooh! Also grateful.
A solo debut is a whole wild journey onto itself. But a fun one…I think I just might keep doing this book thing. ❤️

COVER REVEAL! We're so excited to share the cover of I NEVER KNEW YOU AT ALL by @jopiazzaauthor and @cpride, on sale October 13. Read the full synopsis below, and pre-order your copy today!
Bestselling authors Christine Pride and Jo Piazza return with a gripping new novel where a Black woman’s past collides with her present, unveiling a decades-old mystery that forces her to confront her beliefs about race, love, justice, and her interracial marriage.
When Simone marries into Alex Hartwell’s wealthy white family, she trades her career ambitions for comfort and fully embraces her role as a stay-at-home mom. But when Kwame, Simone’s ex-boyfriend, suddenly arrives in Springville with the journalistic career that she always imagined for herself, her contentment begins to crumble.
Worst still, his newest story has brought him right to her doorstep, as he starts digging into a decades-old unsolved murder of a young Black man who attended The Tate School—the same elite prep school that Alex’s family has attended for generations. When he uncovers a startling connection to the Hartwells, Simone is forced to choose between protecting the family legacy she married into or honoring Kwame’s quest for justice.
Thorny, urgent, and nuanced, I Never Knew You at All thoughtfully examines race through the lens of deeply intimate relationships and digs into complex questions: Who deserves forgiveness? Can people really change? And ultimately—what does it take to hold a marriage together…or break it apart?

Sometimes you don’t get to even meet the people who have blazed a path for you—let alone celebrate them. So it was a real honor to gather yesterday in a packed house in Harlem to toast a publishing legend: Marie Dutton Brown. A woman who got her start in editorial at Doubleday more than 25 years before I would begin my own publishing career at the same imprint. Marie Dutton Brown discovered, created and paved the way for so many firsts, for so many voices and for so many opportunities for the Black and brown people in the publishing industry who would follow in her footsteps. If not for her, not me.
The hundreds of us who gathered in her honor did so in the spirit of solidarity, passion and persistence that are the hallmarks of Marie’s long career, making for a very special and heartfelt afternoon.
Thank you to the @womensmediagroup and, in particular, the dedicated planning committee for this incredible event. And thank you, Marie, for lighting the way.

It’s a good day…to VOTE! On this Election Day, my latest is up at @cupofjo …I talked with a few smart, engaged, inspiring people about how we can stay the course and stay in the fight to keep trying to make this beautiful, flawed world a better place for all.

It’s a good day to share an invitation!
The Women’s Media Group is hosting a luncheon next **Tuesday November 10th* to celebrate the iconic publishing legend Marie Dutton Brown and her trailblazing career. I’m so excited to join an amazing panel of women to discuss legacy, diversity, and the state of publishing, all with a dash of Black Girl Magic. And while we all enjoy a delicious lunch at Harlem’s own Red Rooster.
This is so much better a way to spend a Tuesday afternoon than eating your sad desk salad! Come eat, network and be inspired. Link in bio + stories.

I have been *obsessed* with this incredible fun idea since I saw it launched last spring— an indie book vending machine! Why should they just be for candy bars?? So it’s a true delight to see I Never Knew You At All for sale! Better than a Snickers. Okay, okay, just as good. I need a field trip to ATL to check out @longstorybooksatl and @katekiefer ‘s brilliant brainchild ASAP.

How fun is this? @cpride, @jorringer, and @katehashwrites were all on Totally Booked this week — but that’s not all they have in common!
The three authors also met at Zibby’s Most Anticipated Fall Reads party last month, where they happened to sit right next to each other! 📖🍁
Tune in to all three episodes! 🎧✨
📚 Bestselling author duo Christine Pride and Jo Piazza discussed I NEVER KNEW YOU AT ALL, a gripping novel about a Black woman whose interracial marriage is tested when a journalist investigates a decades-old murder tied to her wealthy husband’s family.
📚 Julie Orringer shared LUNA, PHOENIX, QUEEN, a spellbinding novel about the varieties of infidelity, the provenance of a literary masterpiece, and the power of storytelling to shape identity and destiny.
📚 Kate Hash returned to the podcast with THE MOTHER-IN-LAW BOOK CLUB, a wonderfully tender story about found family, new love, and the power of truly getting to know yourself.

On the podcast today: @cpride and @jopiazzaauthor! 🎧📚✨
Co-authors Christine Pride and Jo Piazza join Zibby to discuss their new book I NEVER KNEW YOU AT ALL, the story of Simone and the investigation into her husband’s grandfather that exposes secrets, traumas, and moral dilemmas around her interracial marriage.
Christine and Jo talk about the secrets we keep from not only others but from ourselves, how family can serve as a mirror for self-realization, and the throughline of friendship in their stories.
They also share their exploration of ‘what if’ in this story, writing about dementia, and why they add gray areas to their characters.

Last night was a good night to….go to Brooklyn for a little gathering…
What fun to get to hang (together! In real life!) with the women behind one of the loveliest, most insightful, heartfelt, fashion-forward, wide-ranging, resource-heavy, community-centered, and enduring havens on all the world wide web. I’m, of course, referring to Cup of Jo (and Big Salad)
It got me thinking… woman are just the best. These days I’m reminded of it, over and over, in all the ways. You can be alone with them day or night, drink as much or as little as you want and feel safe and understood. You can wear skimpy shorts and they will say, “those are so cute, where did you get them?” And not call you a whore. They live to ask, what do you need? How can I help? How can I do better?
It’s mystifying why women don’t run the world (fairly, equitably, humanely) and wild to think of how radically different it would be if we did. May we one day behold such a world. And in the meantime may we lean into the sisterhood whenever and however we can. Like over cookies.

Happy Book Birthday to I Never Knew You At All!
You make a wish on birthdays, right? My wish is for @jopiazzaauthor and my newest novel about race, relationships and reckonings to find its way to many readers; perhaps even to a bookshelf, bedside table, kindle, or earpods near you!
