Last night I had the pleasure of attending another one of Not Your Mother's Book Club's amazing book signing event hosted at Books Inc. Burlingame. Robin LaFevers and Barry Lyga were our two very special guests where they came and discussed with us all the bloody awesomeness that goes on in their books.
As some of you guys know, I just finished Grave Mercy two days ago (read my review here) and I immediately fell in love with it! Before I even read the book, I was excited about it so when I heard that Robin was coming to my area, I had to, without a doubt, get myself there because...I just couldn't miss it!
Now onto the pictures!

And because Shellie from Creative Reads was so super kind enough to send me her ARC copy of Grave Mercy, I got her:
Earlier in the week, my niece had asked me what kind of books we (her mom and I) like to read. My sil and I looked at each other, like
After that exchange happened, her mom said, "You know, fiction!" My niece said, "No, like specific genres." Then I said, "Like...paranormal romance, urban fantasy, dystopians...you know!" After her mom and I answered her, we both asked her why. She responded with, "Because...I want to read a book that has to do with castles and prince and princesses..." Right away, I was like, "Aah, then you'll loooooove the book I'm reading right now! It's called Grave Mercy and it's got all that!" It was so weird and such a coincident that when I went to the signing, I had to get her a signed copy:
I can't wait for her and her mom to read it! And now, onto my pile of awesome:
It was such a fun signing that I wouldn't have been able to attend if it were not for my awesomest big sister for taking me! Seriously, I was and am so happy that I got to meet Robin! She made a quick fangirl out of me!
So, have you picked up your copy of Grave Mercy and I Hunt Killers yet?! If not, call Books Inc. Burlingame because I'm sure they'll have signed copies in store for all of you!
Great pics & write up! This was such a fun event, wish I had taken some. :)

ReplyDeleteIt looks like you had a fantastic time!! I didn't love Grave Mercy like you did, but I think that the writing was wonderful and I am looking forward to the next book. I am just not much of a historical fiction person. Love the pics!!
