A book haul feature that shares items, such as books and swag, that I received within the week.
Note: From now on I will be doing these book hauls on Sundays instead of IMM's. It's still the same concept, but just not under than certain meme. I'll be editing my other posts to correspond to this one :) Thanks for your understand and I hope you keep checking out my book hauls!

Last but not least:
Last weekend I went to the LA Times Festival of Books! I have been going for the past 2 years and each year I've always had a blast despite traffic, crowds and the heat. It's always worth it all when I get to meet my favorite authors! So last weekend I went and I got to meet and get my books signed by Kami Garcia, Margaret Stohl, Lauren Kate, Stephanie Perkins, Robin LaFevers, Kendare Blake, Josephine Angelini, and Maggie Stiefvater! Every one of those authors rocked! There was more that I wished I could have met, but it's ok. I can go next year again. Also, I wish I took more pictures, but my iPhone camera lacks quality and a decent zooming mechanism. LOL.
*Me with Maggie Stiefvater plus my signed copy of The Scorpio Races :)
Fallen in Love by Lauren Kate (signed and personalized)
*I got to meet and get all my Fallen series books signed by Lauren Kate herself. She's super nice!
Swag I got from the signings during the festival!

Beautiful Chaos Rubber Bracelet
Anna Dressed in Blood Bookmark (signed)
Dreamless Bookmark/Bookplate
Team Adam (from If I Stay & Where She Went) pin

JESS! <3 I want to tackle-hug you for having all of these amazing books -- I can't even tell you how amazing it all looks! For one thing, I think Michelle Zink must be your new best friend because she always sends you those gorgeous signed books! Second, Of Poseidon is SO MUCH FUN. I honestly adore that book like crazy, and I think you will too! Third, I've been dying to read The Selection for the longest time so I can't for my copy to arrive on my doorstep. And last but not least, you are so lucky that you got to meet all of those amazing authors!! Kami Garcia, Margaret Stohl, Lauren Kate, Stephanie Perkins, Robin LaFevers, Kendare Blake, Josephine Angelini, and Maggie Stiefvater... I've loved books by each and every single one of them!
