At Bloomsbury Children’s, Erica Barmash has been promoted to senior director of marketing; Sarah Shumway moves up to executive editor; Claire Stetzer is now assistant editor; and Anna Bernard was promoted to associate publicist.

Events
Book Expo will feature An Evening with Bernie Sanders on Thursday, May 31 at 6:15 PM as a ticketed main stage event.

Sites
Lithub has created the separate site, CrimeReads, “a culture website for people who believe suspense is the essence of storytelling, questions are as important as answers, and nothing beats the thrill of a good book. It’s a single, trusted source where readers can find the best writing from the worlds of crime, mystery, and thrillers—a literary culture that’s more robust than ever, but diffuse.”

Pre-Orders
The February 25 announcement of Michelle Obama‘s BECOMING, for publication on November 13, collected enough pre-orders to make the hardcover No. 21 on Amazon’s weekly bestseller list.
