New York writer and editor Rachel Kramer Bussel was at Book Expo America, that publishing industry clusterfuck, and snapped two pics of upcoming celeb tomes: Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen's Influence and "laptop samurai/Queen of All Media" Perez Hilton's Red Carpet Suicides.

On Friday night, the players of the publishing industry escaped the sweltering heat of the BookExpo's home in the Javits Center and found their way to the annual New Yorker Book Party at the well-air-conditioned Chinatown Brasserie. Poet Paul Muldoon and David Remnick chatted in a corner, while Jeffrey Eugenides and Joshua Ferris took their conversation to a more central locale. Rebecca Mead made a few passes around the room and Larry Doyle took refuge in the downstairs lounge. As the night wore on and the drinks flowed more freely, the awkward milling gave way to a genuinely fun (and boozy!) party. Our photographer Brad Walsh documents the gentle debauchery.

Perhaps feeling left out of the New Yorker book party at Chinatown Brasserie, a number of "small" Brooklyn publishers hosted a party in DUMBO at the Powerhouse Arena this weekend. Word on the street was that this would be the hottest party of the whole Book Expo. There were nearly 800 people there, but we didn't want to talk to any of them; all we wanted to do was silently judge. Actually, all we really wanted to do is have YOU, dear reader, silently judge. With that in mind, Joshua David Stein and Nikola Tamindzic combed the party for the most attractive literazis so as to give you the chance to vote on who is the hottest fey boy and liberated female. Books you shouldn't judge by their cover—people who go to book parties, on the other hand? Fair game.
