This is my #bookhaul from the Sirens conference 📚
They had a hand curated bookshop of women‘s fantasy with 1,000 titles - not copies, TITLES - and on my first walkthrough I was pleased I already had so many of the books featured.
Meaning I would not ‘need‘ to buy any.
HAHAHA.
This is me 15 books later 😁
And they put my carry-on through the airport security scanner twice - were they wondering why anyone would have a bag of 100% books? 😹

TheWordJar Great haul! And River of Teeth!!! I need to get my hands on that one!! (There's a rhino emoji but no hippo emoji???) 7y
moranadatter Amazing haul! 7y

elkeOriginal @TheWordJar I think @Kalalalatja first posted about River of Teeth here on Litsy and then last week it was recommended to me by someone EVERYDAY! So I had to get it AND its sequel 😁 7y
Jess_Read_This ❤️❤️❤️❤️What an amazing haul... I'm off to update my Goodreads Want To Read list now!! 7y
TheWordJar I follow the author on Twitter and just love her! Can't wait to hear what you think! 7y

So I could not help myself and did get a few #blinddatewithabook surprises...
(I just could not help the one that says ‘we don‘t remember what this book is. OOPS.‘) 😹😹

The Killing Moon | N. K. Jemisin

And N.K. Jemisin is a hoot. She is a delight when giving a keynote address or chatting over dessert. So down-to-earth and just fricking amazing.
And this one is dated and marked as signed at Sirens. Best memento ever 💕

Victoria Schwab is a doll in real life and even personalized my book 🙀
Also pictured is the Shades of Magic inspired necklace I bought in silent auction to benefit Sirens. What‘s vacation without a little extravagance?

DeborahSmall I‘ve pre ordered the darker shade signed special edition. Would love to see her do a uk tour ❤️ 7y

SO. MANY. BOOKS!
The bookstore they put together for #sirensconference is fantastic - literally full of fantastic fantasy books by women.
But it is this #blinddatewithabook table that I keep returning to and wondering what to choose...

I heard about the Sirens conference here on Litsy last year so I just wanted to let you know I came, I conquered the Colorado altitude, and I am enjoying every minute!
And I got a fancy button to brag I completed the #sirensreadingchallenge 😁
