Jo Nesbo News & U.S. Book Tour

May 6, 2017

This coming week, my all-time favorite author Jo Nesbø will be launching his US tour for his newest Harry Hole novel, THE THIRST - and I am so excited to share a few bits of VERY exciting news with you guys! Read on for details... 


Facebook Live Interview with Jo Nesbø

Date & Time: Monday, 5/8 @ 3:30 PM EST
Watch Here: https://www.facebook.com/jonesboauthor/

First things first: I'm absolutely thrilled to share that on Monday, I’ll be joining Jo Nesbø at Facebook in NYC and interviewing him on Facebook Live! (Those of you who’ve followed Crime by the Book for a little while will know, this is literally my dream interview!!) 

You can catch our interview live at 3:30 PM EST on Jo’s Facebook page. If you have any questions you’d like me to ask Jo during our interview, please feel free to leave them in the comments of this post - I’ll be selecting questions from you, my readers, to ask him on Monday! And of course, if you can’t watch the interview when it’s live, you can always watch it after the fact at the links below. 

Make sure to follow me on Instagram, too - I’ll be posting as many behind-the-scenes pictures as I can surrounding the interview!
