I'm a big fan of book signings and book related events as I'm sure I've told you guys before but I have to say that without a doubt this (PAYA) was the most fun I've had at a book festival ever! Saturday I made the 2 hour trip up to West Chester, PA for the PAYA book festival organized by Harmony from Harmony Book Reviews, she did a fantastic job! There were so many authors and books and raffles for books and book related swag that I was beyond amazed! I met up and had lunch with some new blogger friends and I adored them all! Jamie from The Perpetual Page-Turner was there, Anne from Potter, Percy and I, Christina from Confessions of a Book Addict, Laura and Michelle from the Borders Express in Exton, and Jenn from Book Crazy met up with us later on. We made our way to lunch at a cute little restaraunt that serves breakfast all day (Yum!) and we were joined by Jennifer Murgia (author of Angel Star), Shelena Shorts, (author of The Pace series), and Cyn Balog (author of Fairy Tale and Sleepless). It was super fun and we all had a great time! From there we headed back to the Festival and broke out our wallets so we'd be ready for the 1st round of signings.
What a great turn out! Here are some of my pictures and check out the other girls' blogs to see some more! I can't wait until the next book signing/festival...any book event to meet up with all these girls again!
