Matt Shea’s “The Casino Down the Street” to be displayed at the 2025 LATFOB and Los Angeles Book Confab

The self-publishing and book marketing company ReadersMagnet will exhibit Matt Shea’s “The Casino Down the Street” at two upcoming book events in California this April: the Los Angeles Book Confab on April 23-24, 2025, at the Hilton Los Angeles/Universal City in Universal City, and the 2025 Los Angeles Times Festival of Books (LATFOB) on April 26-27, 2025, at the University of Southern California (USC) campus in Los Angeles.

The book Casino Down the Street tackles a three-year study on casinos and the overall dangers of gambling addiction. Matt Shea shares his own experiences of falling into the pit of gambling addiction. With spiritual intervention, the author found his way out of the addiction and used his experiences to tell an inspirational story that could help those who are struggling with gambling addiction.

ReadersMagnet helps independent authors find their niche in the publishing industry, reach a wider audience, and enhance their brand visibility. The company also arranges exhibits and book signing sessions for authors at national and international book events such as the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books. ReadersMagnet also goes far ahead to create events for authors, such as the Book Confabs.

The Los Angeles Times Festival of Books is an annual event that celebrates written literature. The free two-day, open-air literary festival is organized by the University of Southern California. ReadersMagnet will put up its exhibit space at booth #225. The company will live-stream the exhibit to reach out to book lovers who could not attend the Festival.

Before the LATFOB 2025, ReadersMagnet will bring together authors and booklovers for the Los Angeles Book Confab. The Book Confab is an initiative created by the company to allow authors to share their writing and publishing journey, discuss ideas and insights from their works, and even drum up support for their advocacies. The Book Confab allows authors to share the stories behind their stories. The event also lets authors who are not published with ReadersMagnet talk about their books before the audience.
