What happens when two of the hottest new YA writers converge on a Dallas bookstore?
DFW book bloggers get silly!
This is me, Melina from Reading Vacation, Michelle from Windowpane Memoirs and Kari from A Good Addiction.
Do you see what we’re reading? Firelight by Sophie Jordan and Paranormalcy by Kiesten White!
These two awesome authors talked a little about their books (and how they came to write them!) and opened the floor up to questions.
You can read my review of Firelight here. I *loved* it!
I haven’t yet had the chance to read Paranormalcy, but I hear great things about it!
This is Sophie Jordan. Isn’t she cute?
I found out later in the night that she’s an Aggie, too! Whoop!
And here’s Kiersten White. She threw candy to the people who asked questions.
One piece of stray candy may have pelted The Nerd straight in his chest.
She was so cute — she gave him his own piece of candy for enduring her bad aim!
Sophie and I commiserated about last week’s Aggie Football game.
Let’s not talk about it right now.
So cute!
Kiersten was really sweet and funny.
And I just love her purple nail polish!
It was such a fun signing.
AND – I bought extra copies of Firelight and Paranormalcy and had them signed so we can do a giveaway on the blog! Woohoo! Be looking for that soon!
Happy Monday!

Aw, how fun! I missed seeing you at the Austin Teen Book Festival!! I agree with you, Sophie and Kiersten are so much fun and some of the genuinely nicest people I know.

Aw I wish I could have gone. I have met Sophie but I would also like to meet Kiersten.

That looked like a lot of fun and it's so neat that you saw other bloggers there.
Melina
It was such a fun night! We all look so cute reading our books too. I am glad I got to meet you. My mom said to thank you for being so nice to me online.

This looks like so much fun! I swear you Texans get the coolest signings! =)
