Chasing_Pages That would be fun. I can definitely do the 12th. 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage I‘m most interested in the talks on the 11th, 13th (eve) and 14th (all). I have to say that the event on the 12th isn‘t all that interesting to me. But if it‘s the only time we can all meet up, I‘ll give it a shot. @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Robothugs @Chasing_Pages 6y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa I‘m interested in the 14 too, all. LOL @BarbaraTheBibliophage 6y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa But I can definitely see that the 12, 13, or 14 would probably be best for a group get together, since that‘s the weekend. 6y
Chasing_Pages @BarbaraTheBibliophage I would really like to go the 11th as well, I might be able to switch with someone at work. But right now I work every night but the 12th. 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Chasing_Pages Let‘s see how other folks weigh in before you switch your work (if possible). 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Riveted_Reader_Melissa Why am I not surprised?? 🤪🤪👏🏻👏🏻 6y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @BarbaraTheBibliophage Right! I could use some hopey changey after I finish reading Fear 😂 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Riveted_Reader_Melissa Good point!! Of course, it‘s next month, so we might read a few books in between too! 😍 6y
Librarybelle Darn! That‘s the same weekend I have a conference. This happen last year too! The weeknights are out for me due to work commitments. Have fun to those of you who can make it. Thanks for tagging me, Barbara! 6y
Robothugs @BarbaraTheBibliophage We could use the apps GroupMe or Line and make a chat for those that want to go. Then maybe we can try for a day for the majority, but others can still meet up on other days if they happen to work for them instead of that one? Just a suggestion! It‘s easier than sifting through these comments! (edited) 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Robothugs Good idea! I haven‘t used either app, but have had good experiences with Slack for organizing and off-Litsy communication. 6y
Robothugs I like the layout of GroupMe but totally up to you! If Slack is already what you all use I‘ll get on it. 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @corycatelyn @Robothugs @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Chasing_Pages We started a group in the GroupMe app. There‘s a poll to vote on which event we are most likely to attend. (We should tag everyone again, I guess.) Click here to join: https://groupme.com/join_group/43870940/sASzGm 6y
corycatelyn @BarbaraTheBibliophage I can meet up during the on the 11th or 12th. I work the 13th and 14th. I'm not planning on attending the events. I'm up for whatever...just let me know! 😊 6y
Cinfhen Fun!!! 6y

It was great meeting @BarbaraTheBibliophage at the #MidtownScholar bookstore in #CentralPA to see Masha Gessen (in the background) interviewed and get our books signed. It was a great event, I‘ll have to keep my eye open for future author events, and check out their author interviews online.

LeahBergen Aww, I love it. 💕💕 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage It was all kinds of great to meet you too, Melissa! It sounds like their 2018 events are going to be worth attending. 7y
MinDea Awww! So cool to meet a fellow Litten! 7y

RebelReader How wonderful to meet up with a fellow Litten. You both look fantastic! 💕 7y
Gezemice Oh that's so cool! So great for you to meet! I wish I weren't living in the corn fields... 🙁 7y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Gezemice LOL! When I open my front door that‘s exactly what I see! Corn Fields! The neighbor just went out with his tractor last weekend and harvested them. This was a little over an hour drive for me into Harrisburg, PA 7y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa This is the bookstore we are headed to @Gezemice and here‘s the first time I met @BarbaratheBibliophage 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Gezemice 👋🏻👋🏻😎😎📚📚 6y
Gezemice Oh my gosh, what a great picture! Must have been great fun! So nice to see you both and I continue being jealous :) @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @BarbaraTheBibliophage 6y
Gezemice @Riveted_Reader_Melissa Well I actually do not live in corn fields, but they are close :) However it is 3-4 hours to a major city... our town is not large enough for author visits. Although as a college town, the libraries are excellent, so I can‘t complain, really... 6y

So this used book store I visited today has a completely massive section for Gender Studies. This is just the half I was facing for the photo. Amazing selection of LGBTQ and feminism books. They also have fairly massive sections on many cultures, races, tribes and indigenous peoples. #usedbooks #getindie #feminism #readdiversely #genderstudies #lgbtq #midtownscholar #harrisburgpa #happybibliophage

Ohmigosh Littens! I just spent the afternoon in the world's most amazing used book store. It's three stories with zillions of books and reading nooks. The collection of art and architectural books was huge. Also quite impressed with the diversity of their selection. I found three books and oogled so many more. It's only 45 minutes away from me (Harrisburg, PA). #getindie #midtownscholar #usedbooks #happybibliophage

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Claireluana I didn't even get the whole map in the picture. It's all kinds of massive! 😎😎 8y
