Dark Days Tour Leg 2

Dark Days Tour 2013

Leg 2

Spellcaster by Claudia Gray

Requiem by Lauren Oliver

Mila 2.0 by Debra Driza

Fragments by Dan Wells

Mind Games by Kiersten White 

I have been looking forward to this event the first day I found out they were coming here. I was also a little nervous because it was the first big event I would be taking Melia my daughter with me, thankfully my husband was able to come with me and help out when I needed. We ended up being a little late because I was waiting for Spellcaster to be delivered to my door, but it didn't get here in time so I had to leave without it. Then when I was almost there I forgot my ARC of Mind Games, sadness! 

During the event I was only partially listening, I was trying to keep the daughter happy and not getting upset. But as the line started forming I just decided to wait and chat with the other bloggers I hadn't seen for months.

I told Dan I was listening to Partials while I was pregnant and I almost stopped reading it because of the book being about babies dying hours after birth. So he signed his prescription card saying Melia does NOT have RM.

Debra Driza

All in all the event was fun and Melia did really well. I had to have her in all the photos with the authors, I would have loved to have taken more but I was a little busy with Melia and chatting.

Spring Into the Future Event Recap

SPRING INTO THE FUTURE EVENT

Tahereh Mafi, Veronica Rossi, Cynthia Hand & Kimberly Derting

May 5th 2012 

UW Bookstore in Millcreek

I took a lot of pictures while at the event, I did have a few more, but these were the best ones.

The book displays at the bookstore

This event was so awesome, I loved meeting Tahereh and Veronica for the first time and seeing Cynthia and Kimberly again. The energy of the event was so much fun and very entertaining. 

Talking about their books

 Cynthia Hand & Tahereh Mafi

The Q&A session

I didn't even try to remember the questions and answers, that would be way too hard with this many authors.  There was lots of good questions asked that all of the girls each answered. 

The Fans

My seat has all the extra crap under it. I got there 45 minutes early to get that seat. Guess who also was there, Daniel Marks debut author of Velveteen, can you see him?

 Getting all prepared for the signing part. Each had some swag to giveaway.

 This may seem really random, but this is Tahereh's purse. I saw it when she made her appearance and I just loved it. At the end of the signing I just had to ask her if I could take a picture of it. Too freaking cute!

Signatures 

 All the cool swag we got

Bookmarks for Rossi and Hand (I forgot to add Derting's bookmarks because I got it last week and didn't pick up any this week), a poster signed by all the girls and Tahereh's friend made a specialized necklace for the event. 

 The books I got signed at the event, all have been personalized 

I really loved this event and I hope I will see all of them again when their next books comes out. They were all so sweet and amazing. I will always recommend all of these girls books to everyone that will read them. 

Did you get to meet them at one of their tour stops?
