Book Expo. OMG.
At least 3 times a day, I had Bliss Moments. That’s how good it was.
Here’s why:
Book bloggers and librarians and all the other book people are some of the loveliest people in the world. They’re my tribe. And I got to hang out in their midst for Three Whole Days.

Most exciting: got to meet — In The Real World — book bloggers whose work I adore.
These ladies are smart & funny & generous of spirit.
I can’t imagine BEA without ’em.
Big shoutout to…
Katie of Words for Worms
Marisa of The Daily Dosage
Julie of JulzReads
Kim of Sophisticated Dorkiness
Heather of Based on a True Story
Florinda of The 3 R’s Blog
You made Book Expo the best!
Y’all also made my TBR grow to massive proportions. (Not sure how I feel about that…)*
We got to tramp around the miles of McCormick Place together & talk books & give each other reading suggestions & laugh a lot.
And then they wrote amazing wrap-up posts like this (Katie, we’re looking at you!) and this (Julie: so doggone organized, it’s freaking me out!) and this (Marisa, who fully captured the joy of the shared BEA experience).
OK, so this is just Part 1 of “why BEA was so doggone amazing.” Stay tuned for more.
*just kidding — I’m all about the mammoth TBR
