When it gets close I will need advise on how to do this. They are having booth autographs and an autographing area.

I need to prioritize a list and which ones I can bring a book from home etc.

Wild Pork and Watercress by Barry Crump. The movie adaptation (Hunt for the Wilderpeople) just came out in New Zealand and it is the sweetest and funniest movie that I've seen in a long time. So I really wanted to read the book !

[Rose (The_Calm_Reader)]

I bought The Clockwork Scarab as a Kindle daily deal yesterday & it's still a deal today! Looks like a good Sherlock type mystery!

Nice bookhaul, Jenny!! I need Winner's Kiss! Loved Strings on audio!!!! Love Kate Rudd!

It took me a year to get through Outlander on audio, but mostly because the narrator's voice is sooooooo soothing, I'd fall asleep almost instantly. In fact, when I've got insomnia, I just put on Outlander to help me relax. ;) Love the narrator!

Nancy, Jenny and I brought ALL our books from home! We each had a portable bookcrate we rolled everywhere. And then we bought tons more books at the event. Unless it's a widely popular author like Diana Gabaldon or R. L. Stine, most don't care how many books you bring and are happy to sign them all. I think Jenny had 5 or more for a couple of authors. They seemed very flattered. :) But the ones with lines that go on forever usually only sign 3 per person. R.L. Stine wouldn't personalize but Diana did.

[Nancy]

That is good to know. I will bring books regardless if it says I have to buy a book etc.

Davina Porter is one of my all time favorite narrators and the only reason I finished Outlander! That book needed to be cut by at least 200 pages!

I need to, but I want to buy the entire series too! I have to wait on this one though. I have way too many books I've bought recently that I need to read first.

I just found out a bookstore 5 minutes away has a bunch of the ComiCon authors coming on one night PLUS Pierce Brown! I can almost walk there. 17 authors! Dan Wells, Scott Sigler, V.E. Schwab, Pierce Brown, Kevin Hearne... This event is the Wednesday before ComiCon. And then Justin Cronin is at another bookstore 2 days after ComiCon. I'm losing my mind!!

Today I went to the North Iowa Book Bash and had an absolute blast!! Met some really cool authors (that I'd never heard of) and picked up some books I'm looking forward to reading!



I did know who Kelly Van Hull is, the author of Spectrum is her book, but under a pen name. Excited to read it! It was so fun to meet her!

[Brigid ✩]

Finally got my copy of:



I already read the ebook, but I'm so happy to have a physical copy!! It's such a beautiful book, both inside and out. ;)

Also pre-ordered:



Which I believe is supposed to come in the mail tomorrow! I'd somehow forgotten it was coming out so soon, and I'm very excited to read it. :)

Oh and today I bought for Kindle:



I realized I'd never gotten around to reading it, and I think it's the only Maggie Stiefvater book I haven't read. :P

[Nancy]

I just ordered .

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

Look what just arrived in the mail today!!!



A Court of Mist and Fury!!! Its a BIG book!

[Brigid ✩]

I got The Hidden Oracle in the mail today!

Wooot!! I need to get this one. Question--is it a series that takes place AFTER The Heroes of Olympus series? I'm asking because I've only read the first 2 books in that series. I have read all the original Percy Jackson books. So I'm just wondering if I'd need to finish the Heroes series before reading this one.

[Brigid ✩]

Yes, it takes place after Heroes of Olympus. I haven't started it yet so I'm not sure whether you need to know everything that happens in HoO––but I have seen Rick say that almost all the PJO/HoO characters are going to be in it, so it may be worth finishing those first! Also you should totally finish that series anyway, because it's great. :D

Lucky lucky you! So jealous.

And Jenny,yes finish heros of olympus first but dont worry its a great series.

My copy of TRK arrived in the nick of time. I had 30 pages left of BLLB and would have had to hit the one click button on Amazon Kindle! ;) Whew! I love petting my copy!

[Brigid ✩]

Whew I'm glad you got your copy just in time, Karen! Lol same here, I'll admit I have hugged/stroked my copy of it quite a lot. :D Is it just me, or do all the hardbacks of the TRC books have really soft covers? They just feel so nice!

[Harlee]

@Brigid OMG I THOUGHT THE TRIALS OF APOLLO WASN'T COMING OUT FOR AWHILE LONGER? Now I need to order that one too! :D

[Harlee]

I FINALLY got my copy of The Raven King! I'm hoping to start it this weekend!

[Brigid ✩]

I THOUGHT SO TOO?? I'm wondering if maybe the release date changed, because I could've sworn it wasn't coming out until the fall. Then I saw someone on Tumblr mention it was coming out in a few days and I was like, WAIT WHAT. :P And yay!! Hope you enjoy TRK! ... I might re-read it this weekend, lol.
