October – Month in Review

November 3, 2013 by Jaime Leave a Comment

In case you missed anything this past month, here is the recap for October.

Events:
The Legion Tour
We had the opportunity to meet Kami Garcia, Margaret Stohl, Cinda Williams Chima and Rachel Caine.  This was a great event at our local Barnes & Noble and we ended up with some great swag and a signed copy of Unbreakable by Kami Garcia for a giveaway.

Veronica Roth Live Show – Allegiant Tour
Jaime and I made the trek to Downers Grove, IL to attend the live show to celebrate the release of Allegiant.  It was definitely a great experience.  It was held at the Tivoli Theater and about 1000 people were in attendance.  After about 45 minutes of Q&A, Veronica and her brother sang a song for the crowd that her brother wrote for Tris.  Since the signing was done in order of ticket number, we were pretty close to the end. Thankfully, being in a theater, Veronica Roth chose to show Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban while we waited.

Did you know that we host readalongs with The Fictionators and SwoonyBoys Podcast??  This month we read Divergent and Insurgent in preparation for the release of Allegiant.  If you didn’t get to join us this time make sure you join the group on Facebook to find out what our book for November is going to be and the dates!
