Welcome to PBS Books!
PBS Books is thrilled to partner with Center for Asian American Media (CAAM) to present the 2025 Detroit Festival of Books at the historic Eastern Market. This virtual event is made possible through the generous support of the Center for Asian American Media (CAAM), with additional support from Michigan Humanities and the Detroit Festival of Books.

Jamie DeKelaita is a former news anchor, reporter, and executive producer turned author whose debut book, What’s Next, was born from personal grief and a desire to comfort others. Written during a time of profound loss, Jamie’s heartfelt words offer peace, hope, and healing for families navigating grief—reminding readers that love never ends. A devoted mother of two, Jamie continues to share her story and her book as a lasting gift for anyone who needs a gentle reminder that even in sorrow, beauty and love remain.
