I love book outlet Jenny. I got an order last week and another one coming. I got a bunch from Amazon and thrift books. I can't remember them all. I had a book buying moment. Lol Here are only three I can think of. Shame on me

I haven't read any of them, but Tessa read Geek Girl and loved it, one of these days I'll get onto this series! Picture Perfect was really cheap, less than $2 so I grabbed it on impulse :)

Oda if you ever come to Boston you should come say hi to me, haha! :D And yes the Boston Public Library is AMAZING. It's huge and totally gorgeous. I applied to get a writing residency there last year and was a finalist (gahh, so close!) so I'm going to try again this year. *fingers crossed*

Brigid, you need to let us all know if you get a big book convention or something ;) I bet several of us would go to something like that!
But not until at least next year for me ;)

Nice Harlee!



Nice Harlee!

There's Boston Book Fest every year! It's not super huge, but it's a really fun and free event, and they usually get some good YA authors. I met Libba Bray and Andrew Smith there at the most recent festival, and a couple years ago I met Kristin Cashore. :)



Also, on Kindle today I picked up

Oooo Nice Rose! I haven't bought Blue Lily yet, I read it from the library. I do need to own it! Love the series :)

@Jenny I just had to lol! I have the first two in paperback and Blue Lily, Lily Blue is finally in paperback!

I'm shocked I dont have any of this series! I have the audios but really need the hardbacks for my library! Maybe after all my book fest shopping is done, I can concentrate on finishing my Lunar Chronicles collection (I'm missing Scarlet only) and then start on The Raven Boys series. I love those covers so much!!
