A deeply personal memoir about one woman’s journey to finding her voice and rewriting her story by the creator and host of the award-winning podcast Moms Don’t Have Time to Read Books™.Zibby Owens has become a well-known personality in the publishing world. Her infectious energy, tasteful authenticity, and smart, steadfast support of authors started in childhood, a precedent set by the profound effect books and libraries had on her own family.But after losing her closest friend on 9/11 and later becoming utterly stressed out and overwhelmed by motherhood, Zibby was forgetting what made her her. She turned to books and writing for help.Just when things seemed particularly bleak, Zibby unexpectedly fell in love with a tennis pro turned movie producer who showed her the path to happiness: away from type-A perfectionism and toward letting things unfold organically. What unfolded was a meaningful career, a great love, and finally, her voice, now heard by millions of listeners.An honest and moving story about relationships, love, food issues, the writing life, and finding one’s true calling, Bookends will inspire and uplift.

A wife, mother, and frustrated writer faces an impossible deadline for turning her life around in a hilarious debut novel about family, friendship, success, and exhilarating self-(re)discovery.Pippa Jones is a fortyish former literary sensation who fears she will be a one-hit wonder. After the follow-up book she was almost done writing, Podlusters, had to be tossed (it ended up sharing a plot and title with superstar author Ella Rankin’s summer blockbuster!), she couldn’t write a thing. Months of staring at a blank page made her confidence vanish like a one-night stand. When she finds out that she has only five days left to finish (or rather, start) or repay an advance she’s already spent, Pippa has a brilliantly original idea. Okay, fine, her twelve-year-old son came up with it as a joke, but Pippa and her teenage daughter approved.Pippa’s not only going to make a bold statement, but she’ll change the book world while she’s at it! Can she pull it off? At this point, she doesn’t have a choice.When Pippa’s publisher gets intimately involved, it unlocks a series of plot twists she never saw coming. From the courtyards of posh Beverly Hills hotels and Malibu mega-mansions to Brentwood and Santa Monica bookstores, Pippa races against time—in her used Volvo—and discovers more about her career, marriage, family, friends, and herself than she ever could have dreamed up.

A USA Today Bestseller for 29 weeks!Featured in the Washington PostInspired a stage adaptation, a global Substack, and 100+ events "Zibby Owens has done the literary world a great service, collecting important views at a critical moment in history. As she says, this is not a time to lower your voice. Kudos to her and all the authors here for sharing valuable insight, emotion, and perspective on the often misunderstood Jewish experience.”—Mitch Albom, author of Tuesdays With MorrieOn October 7th, 2023, Israel was attacked in the largest pogrom since the Holocaust. Jews around the world felt a collective shock and a renewed urgency to speak, gather, and hold one another closer. On Being Jewish Now is an intimate, hopeful, funny, moving, and deeply meaningful collection of essays about what it means to be Jewish in this moment, and the unique culture that brings this group together.Edited by Zibby Owens, bestselling author, podcaster, bookstore owner, and CEO of Zibby Media, this collection brings together 75 authors, advocates, actors, rabbis, and cultural voices reflecting on Jewish joy, celebration, humor, food, identity, loss, love, family, and the ties that connect Jewish people across generations and geographies. Together, these essays offer a portrait of a community changed by tragedy but still rooted in memory, meaning, and stubborn hope.For Jewish readers, On Being Jewish Now offers the comfort of recognition and the reminder that you are not alone. For allies, friends, and loved ones, it offers an honest, accessible window into what many Jews have been carrying since October 7th, and why Jewish culture, humor, history, and connection remain so powerful.All profits will be donated to Artists Against Antisemitism.
