WHAT'S HAPPENING IN BECCA LAND?
Well, as you all know, I met Gena Showalter for the second time last Friday, and it was awesome, and then I met a fellow blogger Amanda before that for coffee. IT WAS MAGICAL! For reals, guys, this girl and I just clicked, and I think we are going to be the greatest of friends. There was definitely tons of flailing of Sarah J. Maas in our conversation. I cannot wait to do it again...SOON! Let's see, after that, I was painting like crazy to get everyone's tote orders out, and then I painted a Snow Like Ashes tote just for the fun of it. GUYS. Sara Raasch bought my SLA tote. WHAAAAT. I was freaking out that she bought it. It was pretty great. I got everything mailed off, and on Wednesday, my mom and I drove down to Irving, Texas, which is roughly a 3 1/2 hour drive from where I live, to go to the Fierce Reads tour. I will have a post later this week talking about all the shenanigans that went on, but let me just say, it was one of the best trips of my entire life, and I will cherish it forever!!! I got to meet Mary, and all the authors, and it was just the absolute best! Other than that, I've been working like usual, and trying to read as much as possible, because holy crap! They need to rename October....Booktober because so many good books are coming out! So many books, so little time...am I right? I'm currently reading Stone Cold Touch, and hoping to finish so I can start The Young Elites. What are you all reading??

Wow girl, you had such a kick a* week! I mean who wouldn't want to have coffee with me? Total jk. I'm still getting over my jealousy that you got to go to the Fierce Reads tour. SO much fun! So yes, we definitely need to meet up for coffee soon!!! I had such a fantastic time chatting and flailing about books! We will be the greatest of friends, I can already tell! :)
ReplyDeleteI KNOW RIGHT?! HAHA. Seriously. Our coffee date was ranked up there with the Fierce Reads event. It was a ton of fun, and I almost wish I didn't have to leave to go to that signing because I was having a blast. I already know we are going to be legit best buddies. I really really enjoyed our conversation and flails and cannot wait to do it again!!!
DeleteWow, seriously? That's great because I'm sure Fierce Reads was awesome! Okay so after all these October shenanigans are over and out, we will have to do more fun things like that! It's a deal.
DeleteAlso, I got some books that I need to talk to you about ASAP... The Young Elites man.... have you read that? I must know your thoughts!
ReplyDeleteDUDE. I haven't had a chance to read it yet. I've got about a hundred pages of Stone Cold Touch left and then I plan on reading it! I'm reallllllly excited about it though... I'll text you when I finish it!
DeletePlease do... I have so many thoughts on that book. Like part of me absolutely LOVED that book and then the other half is like no.no.no.NO. So I must speak with you on this subject haha! Also, is the Stone Cold Touch series any good? I've been contemplating on reading them, but I'm not sure if they are worth the money yet or not.
DeleteGreat week! Congrats on those signed books. I haven't read that series yet, but I'm totally itching to. Enjoy all your new additions! My STS
