Home from the Brooklyn Book Festival! 💪🏻

My haul: 📚11 books - 4 are signed & personalized by the authors! 1 was free! A few would fit for #Scarathlon but I doubt I‘ll get to them in time. Very productive day. Now my arms hurt from carrying this all back on the train. #BKBF

Wicked Fox | K. A. T. CHO

Beginning my #DoubleSpin with this #kdrama inspired book packed with Korean myth. I met the author at the #BKBF last year - she was so sweet.

TheAromaofBooks Oooo can't wait to hear what you think of this one! It's on my TBR also. 4y
rachelsbrittain I really enjoyed Wicked Fox! So jealous you were able to meet Kat Cho and get your book signed!! 4y
Melismatic @rachelsbrittain 🥰😻 she was so cute and kind! I had never heard of the book but went to a panel with her at the Brooklyn Book Fest bc it was about YA and female empowerment. Left charmed by her so I bought a copy for her to sign. 4y

Finished my grocery run right before the storm ⛈ outside hit. It‘s now raining buckets and thundering. Perfect timing to crack in to my April #BookSpin!

I got this at #BkBF last year after attending a panel & meeting N.K. Jemisin. She‘s so rad - I really can‘t wait.

SamAnne It is on my #Bookspin as well! 4y

Starting this tomorrow AM. Picked it up during #BKBF last year. It‘ll be my first off of my giant “Mount TBR” of books sitting in my bookshelf unread.

annahenke I‘m trying to tackle my unread bookshelf this year too! 4y
Melismatic @annahenke it‘s daunting but a good problem to have. 😂🤷🏻‍♀️ 4y

Not starting this tonight — too tired. But it‘s the first of my #BKBF splurges & fits with the #TeamStoker theme. And the cover is gorgeous. Hope it lives up to the hype. 🤞🏻👻 #Scarathlon @TheReadingMermaid

Fave panel at #BKBF — dubbed “We Came to Slay”. Featured the tagged book‘s author (on the left), Hafsah Faisal (middle) & Kat Cho (right). I got to meet all three - so kind & sweet! Can‘t wait to dig in to all 3 books - starting first with the tagged bc it seems like the perfect #Halloween book!

#BookHaul from #BKBF (Brooklyn Book Fest) today — sans the tagged book which I already had. The author was at a really fun panel and was so kind. Also met N.K. Jemisin who is a total badass. No ARCs tho. 🤷🏻‍♀️

#BkBF I‘m ready for you! Goals: get into a panel I‘m excited for with an author on my #TBR, grab an #ARC or two, and cross off more options for #LitsyAtoZ.

Billypar Sounds great! I've missed the last couple of years, so I had this one marked on my calendar. Thanks for the tag @Liz_M 5y
Rachel_nyc @Liz_M Oh wow that really snuck up! I work on Sunday so festival day may not work unless I go to one of the late panels but there are also some interesting events during the week so I‘d totally be up for a meet-up if we can all coordinate something! 5y
