Fangirling hard because Chris Bohjahlian liked my Instagram comment and replied...whilst also wishing I had said something more elegant and profound. 😂🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ #authorsaremyrockstars

Notes from BookExpo:
These are just some of the authors (including some celebrities!!) who I got to meet and get signed
#ARC 'S from!
I was lucky enough to get a ticket to Gabrielle's signing who was promoting her upcoming essay collection that'll be released in Oct & I got a signed copy! She was super sweet, complimented my pixie cut, & was even prettier in person.😍 #Fangirling

Notes fr the weekend:
She was the best- & a local! Needles to say, there was a big crowd for her & she didn't disappoint. Witty, self deprecating, & hilarious!
- She's already finished her book for 2018 & is currently working on another one!
- She won't let her hubby (creator of 'The Wire) edit her drafts anymore after he went to town with a red pen the one time she did ask him.😄

Notes fr the weekend:
Made her signing just in time & got to chat a bit @ her table where she took down my email after learning I'm a librarian @ the NIH Patient library, saying she'd contact me about donating audiobooks - so sweet! 😍
I thanked her for attending while being so very preggars!🤰
This book, her latest, is one of my most anticipated #TBR 's!! ❤

Notes from this past weekend's Gaithersburg Book Festival:
Got to hear my Meg Medina talk & get her latest book signed!💃🏻
She had such a fun & informative author talk, was totally receptive, very approachable & funny! Definitely one of my favs from the festival.🌟😍
After hearing her author talk, I'm even more eager to read my (now signed) copy of BBB!
I got to meet Laini Taylor on Monday. She's awesome! #fangirl #authorsaremyrockstars
