I just got back from the Cassandra Clare/Holly Black signing up in Portland. It was amazing! My friend and I got there 3 hours early and we still were about the 30th people there. I'm gonna guess at least 200 showed up in that tiny little section of Barnes and Noble.
Cassie and Holly both talked about lots of funny things (such as Cassandra finding Mr. Peanut sexy cause he has Robert Downey Jr.'s voice). They had the audience laughing the whole time. Also, the people in front of us named their baby Jace because both the father and the mother are huge MI fans. How cool is that?
A new rule was started by S&S about how you have to buy a book from each author AT THE SIGNING in order to get your books signed. Sooooo I rebought CoFA (but the one with Jace's letter in it. SWOON!) and now I get to do a giveaway!
One lucky person will win...
1 SIGNED copy of City of Fallen Angels
1 set of postcards (Izzy is trying to get Alec and Magnus to get married. They are HILARIOUS!)
Excerpt from Clockwork Prince/ excerpt of Black Heart by Holly Black
a purple Dream Worker bracelet

I love getting comments! I'm always checking to see if I have any new comments. It's actually pretty sad how often I check for them really. So if there is anything you want to say about a post of mine, please say it! I want feedback :)
As of lately, I'm making the blog a no-award blog. I love getting them and I'm always honored, but I don't have the time to do all the things that are required of them. Sorry :(
Also, my "reply" button does not seem to be working in my comments on my computer. I have to use a different computer to reply back so if I don't reply, it's not because I'm rude, it's just that I can't.

I was there too! It was so packed. I got there half an hour early and had to wait for hours to get my books signed. It was worth it though! Next time I will get there a couple hours early and just read.

You are so lucky! I miss my book store where authors came about 2 days a week. I loved meeting authors, even if I was totally tongue tied. Authors are the neatest people.

Sounds like a fun night! Holly and Cassie will be doing a joint event at my bookstore next week in South Hadley, MA, and I'm really looking forward to seeing them again on stage. If only Sarah Rees Brennan were there, too!
