On 14
October Escalator Press launched Open
Your Eyes, Jackson Ryder at the Wellington Central
Library. Our guest speaker, Owen Mapp, delivered a rave review of the
book: "Rudy... has generated a plot that both teenagers and
adults will find compulsive reading."

A week after
the launch of
Open Your Eyes, Jackson Ryder, the Wellington Central
Library became the location of a second book party. This time, for
Helen Waaka’s Waitapu.
Waitapu
was first launched in Hawke’s Bay on 15 October.
Guest speaker Renée commented that "Tonight is a night for
rejoicing because after reading Waitapu
I feel like someone has finally got what small towns in Aotearoa are
about. I congratulate Helen for capturing this essence and I
congratulate Escalator Press for recognising hers." As Renée
said, while Waitapu
may be about a small town, it is full of large stories.
