As some of you may already know, I'm a big fan of Elise Kova (author of the Air Awakens series) and Danielle L. Jensen (author of The Malediction Trilogy). Last Saturday they were in Vancouver and did a joint signing at Chapters Metrotown. It was such a surreal experience meeting them!

I was about 20 mins early and they were still setting up so I stood off to the side. And yep, I was the creepy girl who was staring and grinning at them lol. My hubby said they probably don't recognize me but they smiled when they saw me so I took that as a good sign (or they're just being friendly) :P
I was first in line and after some (internal) squealing followed by speechlessness from me, they started signing my books. I couldn't believe they were right in front of my eyes O.O Anyways I backed off after they were done to let others meet them but I told them I'd be back lol...

After the initial group of people, I got back in line with my cousin who got her books signed and I got some more books signed ;) It was so much fun talking to Elise and Danielle about their books~ They were so generous and down-to-earth (and read and right in front of me!)!

I also got all the hugs!!!! Extra ones for Melissa too <3

| HUGS! *squeals* |
After I got everything I brought signed, I stuck around and chatted with Elise, Danielle and a couple other readers. We were basically hogging Elise and Danielle's attention #sorrynotsrry Elise drew me a scene from Crystal Crowned! It's very spoilery so I won't share it here but if you want to see, let me know ;)

It was fun meeting new friends! Jenna is a member of the Tower Guard too! She cosplayed as Vhalla! You guys should follow her @novavandorwolf as well as Rennie @ketsivaun, a fellow AA fan!

It was absolutely amazing getting to meet Elise and Danielle (and Vhalla and Cécile)!! Thank you so much for coming to Vancouver and please come back and visit again <3 <3
That's so cool that you got to meet them! Sounds like a lot of fun, I hope they come around my way sometime! :P
ReplyDeleteIt was and I hope you get to meet them too :)
DeleteI love blog posts about book events. Have heard good things about Stolen Songbird. I haven't heard of the other series but will check it out!
ReplyDeleteJen @ YA Romantics
It's a really beautiful trilogy! Please do pick them up :D
DeleteFun! I'm so jealous - you looked and sounded like you were having a blast and I really wanted to go too. :) Can you show us the picture? I'm really curious! I have read Air Awakens, and am thinking about starting Stolen Songbird... Which one did you like better? Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI loved them both it's impossible to choose! They're different so you really have to be your own judge. I can definitely show you the picture. Do you want to tell me your email or shoot me a quick email so I can share the picture with you? Although if you've only read AA, I'd highly suggest you not see it since it is very spoiler-y :)
DeleteThank you! :)
DeleteLucky girl! :)
ReplyDeleteI know right?! I feel so extremely lucky and grateful <3
DeleteI love your fangirling face! You have been quite the book event social butterfly lately. :)
ReplyDeleteAww thank you <3 I couldn't be more thankful for all the author events I got to attend! July has been so fulfilling~
DeleteAhh how amazing! ♥ I love that you get to meet these fabulous authors. Thank you for taking those extra hugs for me, you are the best! ♥♥♥
