Ok, so I found out yesterday that one of my most favourite author’s is coming to a Chapters near me!! I’m not usually into stuff like this, but I’ve never met an author before and well, to say I fangirl squee’d in Chapters would be an understatement! But what’s the catch?! Well I need to be one of the first 400 people to buy this book on March 19th so I can nab an exclusive wristband and HOPEFULLY a 1st edition copy. I live in a really big city, so it could get ugly people, real ugly! I was going to pre-order the book so I was guaranteed a 1st edition copy since they all come with extra’s and I would be super bummed if I didn’t get one. Is it crazy that I am contemplating buying 2 copies so I can for sure be guaranteed a 1st edition?
Luckily I have that day off work, it’s a Tuesday, so I don’t have to feign sickness *cough* *cough* but I’m contemplating standing in the freezing cold at 4am… actually I’m contemplating going the night before but you can freeze to death up here, so that’s not really logical, he…he…he…. nope. If I can haul my ass out of bed early enough, I have to meet Cassie Clare. So much gushing! I super ❤ The Infernal Devices and can’t wait to see how it ends!
In OTHER news, I started a new book, The Iron King from The Iron Fey series. I had no idea what it was about, but I have come to learn it has to do with the Seelie and Unseelie Court and Queen Mab and Lord Oberon etc. Normally not a huge deal, but my best friend was in this huge production where she played Queen Mab, so I got pretty excited! The story isn’t the same, obvs, but I don’t really care. I’m really enjoying the first book so far. I’ve been book obsessed ever since the new year began. Go figure. It took me 2 months to finish one book, but as soon as January hit it was like my oxygen supply had run out and I needed air!! I’ve read 8 books so far and am on my 9th, I just can’t get enough of these paranormal YA romance novels hahaha. I’ve read my first YA dystopian novel and now I’m back into the fantasy. I think I’m going to really enjoy this year’s book selection! I’m pretty stoked for a bunch of new books coming out in the next few months!
Anyways, It’s about high time I go read! I’ve waited ALL day!!
