DOYLESTOWN, PA — The Bucks County Book Festival will cap off this year's event by hosting a free Books ‘N Brew event at three downtown Doylestown pubs from 4 to 6 p.m. on Saturday, September 24.

"It’s like listening to your favorite band, but this time the artists are published authors who will entertain you with the inside scoop about their books, life, and writing journey, said organizers.

Participants will meet 12 diverse authors covering genres from psychological thriller, to sports, cocktails, genealogy, history, music, mystery, biography, women’s literature, and a hot self-help book. Grab at seat early and stay put as all 12 authors read in rotating sets with breaks in between for beverage refreshers and book purchases.
