Today was spectacular. Between my co-pilot sweet-talking people, our huge collection of bags, and many countless minutes on fun lines, I think it’s safe to say Bookcon was a success!
The authors were so nice and pleasant. Staff were more than accommodating and offered to help time and again. All of the books offered were high quality and I was so happy with everything that I found!
Now on to the HAUL
Everything you see in the picture above was obtained at Bookcon whether it was free or not.
28 total books were acquired not including samplers or previews.
23 books were free with 5 books being paid for.
I won a Tumbler at the LitJoy booth, bought a large bookbeau, and got my picture taken with Spirit, Stallion of the Cimarron. The shirt was from inviting people using the &Ampersand app and inviting 5 friends. I also got 2 stress balls, miscellaneous sticker, tattoos, and pins.
(Pictured below) The 3 books on top were paid and signed. The 8 on the bottom were free and signed.
Catch y’all on the next page!

I only stood in smaller lines! Or depending on how tired we were, we would stand on a long line to rest our shoulders 😂
