On the First Day
Last night was the first night of ALA. The exhibits opened at 5:30 and, oh. my. There were hot h’orderves, cases of soda, hot popcorn, candy bars galore, champagne . . .
Oh, and books. Lots and lots of books.
I know it looks like I grabbed everything in sight, but really I was quite discerning. I am so excited to go back tomorrow. Frankly, the excitement might kill me.
OMG, is this like the best haul ever or what! I'm so jealous, but congrats on getting your hands on all of these! 🙂
Oh my goodness, you have a copy of Linger. I think you deserve at award just for that!
What an interesting mix! Looks like so much fun.
It was fun to see all the books you came away with. I was particularly interested in The Time Pirates by Ted Bell. I presume it is the sequel to Nick of Time, which Andrew and I finished reading out loud. And I hope you are going to review these as you read them. Andrew has informed me that fantasy is by far the best genre, and we are looking for some new good ones.
I'm wondering if you even slept last night!! 😉 So glad you're having a wonderful time!!
wow! so much fun!
One word: jealous!
Absolutely jealous! Enjoy the conference.
I am unspeakably jealous.
Oh, so fun! What an awesome haul.
Sounds like my kind of party! And in case you grabbed too many books, you know my address 🙂
So cool you get to go to this. I'm totally jealous! Thanks for sharing the details.
I want to see your home library!
Wow! Incredible haul-what a fun time!
Oh my goodness, I'm so jealous!!
It's so pretty….*pets*
