BEA/BBC in NYC: Final Post (I Promise)

This is the really final post on Book Expo America (BEA) and the Book Blogger Convention (BBC). I need to start writing all these reviews of the Kate Daniels books because these are ones I really want to talk about (so much that I will most likely also write a separate series review after the individual book reviews – I finished Magic Bleeds last night and so desperately want more). After writing about what occurred at BEA and BBC, I […]

Book Blogger Convention 2010

The day after Book Expo America was of course the first Book Blogger Convention. I usually try to avoid talking about blogging too much here so I don’t bore those of you who aren’t bloggers, but this is one thing I would like to discuss as there may be people who are curious about going next year.

This week I got one book. […]

It appears I lied, so this will just be about day two and I’ll discuss more about what I actually thought about it in a different post. The morning of the second day at Book Expo America was another flurry of signings, although it […]

Book Expo America: Day One

Of course, as any bibliophile will tell you, being able to get so many books at Book Expo America (BEA) is great (especially the signed books – I am such a sucker for those!). But I’ve already talked about during my weekly book update posts so now it’s time to talk more about the experience (although I will include any interesting book-related news just in case you missed it in the other posts). Due to technical difficulties with my husband’s […]
