Aimee Bender, Marisa Silver and Michael Jaime-Becerra were among the authors who braved the near 100-degree heat to appear at the West Hollywood Book Fair on Sunday. By all accounts, attendance was down -- perhaps by as much as 50% -- because of the weather.

The one-day neighborhood book festival included appearances by actress and memoirist Molly Ringwald, poet Mark Doty and crime writer James Ellroy; a Lovecraftian live-action game; and lots and lots of sun. See our photo gallery of the West Hollywood Book Festival here.
