A SPECIAL MILESTONE I’M HONORED TO SHARE
Read, Reflect, Respond Featured in the New York Times Book Review
Some moments take your breath away. For individuals in Maryland and DC, this reflection celebrates a major milestone for Dr. Gloria Vanderhorst—her book’s feature in the New York Times Book Review and a billboard in Times Square.
Dear Friends,
I’m very pleased to share some exciting news. My book, Read, Reflect, Respond, was recently featured in the New York Times Book Review on September 7, 2025. Seeing it in print in such a respected publication is truly humbling.
Even more astonishing, the promotion was also displayed on a Times Square billboard. It is a little surreal to think my work was visible in one of the busiest, most recognizable places in the world. Holding the magazine in my hands and seeing the book there reminds me of why I wrote it in the first place—to encourage readers to pause, reflect, and respond thoughtfully in their own lives.
I am deeply grateful for the support of so many friends, family, and readers who have encouraged me along the way. Your notes, reflections, and stories make this milestone even more meaningful.
A few copies of the New York Times Book Review will be arriving soon, and I look forward to having them as a tangible reminder of this journey.
Thank you again for celebrating this with me. It means more than words can say.
If you haven’t yet explored the book, you can find Read, Reflect, Respond on Amazon.
