Welcome to Litsy!

#NatBookFest recap: fantastic panels; signed (originally didn‘t get Goliath as I tried to have some restraint, but after hearing his & Leslye‘s panel had to get it too); added ~2 dozen TBR books; got tons of bookmarks; met neat people, one of whom told me about the b2weird IG book club focused on SFF authors of color + she gave me her extra ARC of Janelle Monáe‘s book.

Bonus! I got to have dinner with @Chrissyreadit & @Susanita ❤️ #littenmeetup

At #NatBookFest! Sat in on a panel with Tiffany D. Jackson and Ryan La Sala. I haven‘t read any of their works. It was a panel on the horror genre in YA. It was very interesting and they were both very funny! I may be checking out their books!

At #NatBookFest and just got out of this great panel with authors Jennifer Close and Eleanor Brown. I may have to check their books out now!

I‘m at #NatBookFest at the DC Convention Center and was at this panel earlier with Counterfeit author Kirsten Chen, Katie Gutierrez, and author of The Lifeguards, which I want to check out now, Amanda Eyre Ward.

I‘ll need to be at least 3 people to get to all the sessions & signings I want to attend! 😆😆😆
These are all the #NatBookFest books I plan to read. I hope to purchase at least a couple of these at the festival & get them signed. The question remains: which ones?!?

We‘re also planning a Litsy meet-up on Sep 3. Sign-up so we can coordinate a time & location to meet:
