Happy Friday!
As you may or may not know, this week is BEA (Book Expo America) a huge industry convention for book publishers, booksellers, librarians, authors and reviewers. It's a lot of fun and I'm lucky that it's in my hometown and easy for me to attend. (Next year the show moves to Chicago and all you Midwesterners will have that luck.)
I had to miss out on all the fun Thursday due to a prior obligation, but that gave me time to rest my feet. (BEA requires as much stamina as a day at Disney World.)
I'm back in attendance today and in celebration, I am having a special BEA Freebie Friday.
What will you win?
I'm very sorry that due to shipping costs (that hardcover is heavy, I tell you. I carried it around all day...) this is US only.

Oh yay!! I'm happy you were able to go today. :) Have a blast!! I wasn't able to make it again this year. :( Some day...
ReplyDeleteUghh, BEA is seriously my lifelong dream (blogger and reader wise) and I promise to go to Chicago next year just to attend it! Plus, it's my chance to meet everyone (although I reckon you wouldn't be going next year? Boo! I looked forward to meeting you!)
ReplyDeleteCan't participate in this one, so good luck to those who are!

I hope you have a great time at BEA!
ReplyDeleteDo you guys have any idea how hard it is being stuck in Europe and hearing about all you guys' awesome plans for BEA? :D Hope you have a great time.
ReplyDeleteSomeday I will be there! Someday... I hope you are having the bestest time!
ReplyDeleteFunny, I had no idea you were at BEA. Usually people are announcing and talking about it non stop for months before. I don't think I'll ever get to go to one of these but I hope you're having fun!
ReplyDeleteAnd I was looking at some pictures of the lines and told my friend the only thing I would wait in line for that long are Disney rides. Or Disney bathrooms :)
Thanks for the giveaway!
Ah, I hope you have a fabulous time! (and grab some ARCs for me to be jealous of!)
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway, from an awesome blog! I hope you are having an excellent time.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to anyone else who is entering!
Chicago next year? That's still a 6 hour drive away. I don't think I'll ever get to go. Hope you had a great time. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks for the giveaway! I'm glad you had fun! I figure you had fun? :) But I bet your feet are killing you, I can't imagine walking around the floor all day. Especially with Illuminae. :( That looks like it weighs a ton.
ReplyDeleteYes! It's in Chicago next year and I'm excited because it's a bit closer to me (I'm in Kansas), so that's really nice.

Cool swag:) I hope you are going to write a post about your experience later:D
ReplyDeleteFun stuff! Thanks for the give away as always Jen :)
ReplyDeleteI am SO ready for it to come to Chicago next year!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! && I hope you had a fabulous time at BEA!
ReplyDeleteAs someone who has spent many a day at Disney World (I live like 20 minutes away, and I just love it there) I know that there's almost no greater feeling than, after you get home, kicking off your shoes, and collapse in bed. I hope you had a fantastic time, got to meet lots of amazing others, see lots of other awesome bloggers, and of course, got lots of stellar books! I would love to see a wrap up post about it!
