Hey Bookworms!
(Did you miss yesterday's peek at the BEA Show Floor and a recap of the Teen Author Carnival?)
The first day of BEA was fantastic! I ran into so many bloggers and chatted with some new faces as well. I also got to talk to two publicists I've been working with for a while now, which was a highlight of the day for me!
Another highlight was seeing a Broadway musical! I saw Something Rotten on a co-worker's recommendation. It was hilarious! It's up for a whopping TEN Tony Nominations next month. I think it will scoop up quite a few!!!
And of course, I got some great books already, too. Narrowing down my highlights to share was HARD and this list is longer than I'd like. I apologize to your TBR now!
THE SIGNED BOOKS:
*STELLA AND CHARLIE: FRIENDS FOREVER by Bernadette Peters
~So excited to meet her, ahhhh!!!
*THE SILENCE OF SIX by E.C. Myers
~Yay for local authors doing well!!!
THE BOOK TOO GORGEOUS FOR WORDS:
*ILLUMINAE by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff ~Just LOOK at this video! I've never seen a HARDCOVER galley before. This book is gorgeous!!!
