For seniors, graduation is just around the corner, and for everyone else, summer break is fast approaching! That means it’s time to wrap up the school year on a high note while also enjoying all the exciting activities LA and USC have to offer.

The LA Times Festival of Books is impossible to miss if you visit USC’s campus in the second to last week of April. Every year, campus is overtaken by stages and white tents in the week leading up to the weekend-long book fest that spans genres, age groups, and the entire campus. After three years of watching the assembly of the event, and being a lifelong major book lover, I decided to check off another senior year bucket list item and visit.
