A Touch Morbid: InsaniTEA and giveaway

Eden won the battle-she saved her true love from the darkest evil. But the war has only just begun. With secrets swirling around her, powerful allies unraveling, and life-and death-as she knows it eroding, Eden and those she loves tread dangerous ground. Can she trust anyone? Will her unearthly powers be her salvation or her downfall? A sweeping, dark, and sexy paranormal romance that will haunt readers with an inventive mythology and a cinematic New York City filled with shadows and longing

I was fortunate to attend the IsaniTea party with Leah Clifford for the release of her book, A Touch Morbid.  Claslan played some music for us and they are really good.  Here are some pics from the signing.  These pictures are not mine because my phone died.

Everyone who RSVP'd Leah that they were coming got a swag bag.  I just LOVE bags, so I was really excited about this when I received it.  (I am a bag-a-holic, I think)

Smart Chicks Kick It

I was fortunate enough to go to this book signing.  I must say that it was the most hilarious book signing that I have ever been to.  That is saying a lot because Maggie Stiefvater was pretty funny.  The phrases of the night are: hot monkey and all three of the Fuentes brothers...together.  Here are a few pictures from the book signing:

My niece Ilana and I went to a book signing at Borders in Novi, Michigan yesterday.  It was a three-hour drive, but so worth it.  Maggie spoke first and was hilarious!  I loved it!

Dark Days of Supernatural book signing

My family and I went to a book signing today in Lansing. It was the Dark Days Supernatural Tour. The authors there were: Ellen Schreiber (Vampire Kisses), Aprilynne Pike (Wings), Veronica Roth (Divergent) and Josephine Angelini (Starcrossed). I read all their books in preparation for the signing and in honor of that, I will be reviewing those books first.
