saturday and sunday was the los angeles book fair.
dragging poor hubby, we met up with some friends so we could indulge in the once a year- no rules buy whatever books you want because it's a book fair extravaganza!!
in the past, it was held at UCLA, but this year it was at USC (much to my friend p's pride being a USC alumni)
there were books, books and books!
a ben & jerry's truck! giving away free ice cream! (and yes, it was goooood)
and more!
one of my favorite booths is always
because i'm a big fan.
we also stopped by mysterious galaxy, which is a bookstore that comes to visit from san diego. i love them too!
oooh and so... we were only there for three hours... but the goodies!
cute buttons from steamCrow (www.steamcrow.com)
fantastic artwork at this booth
i'll have to go online and buy some things for the office!
a penguin bag! (i'm a nerd and have wanted one for a looong time)
a couple of YA books
two marjorie m. liu books
i've read both of these books before and luh-uh-uhved them. they're paranormal crazy. these two are my favorite out of the series so far and they've been re-issued from avon books this past year. so YAY!!
and got these books from the mysterious galaxy booth and got to meet the author! a really nice guy named richard kadrey. he signed my book and drew a picture for me.
super exciting day! i'm a bit tired, sleepy, took a nap when i got home from the heat and sun. but now that i'm refreshed, i guess i'll go.....
READ!!!
;)
