I'm off to see the wizard...I mean, I'm going to BEA


I'm off to NYC to experience BEA or Book Expo America for the first time! 

What is BEA?
It's a three day book and publishing extravaganza, where participants meet authors, publishers, other bloggers, attend panels and learn all about upcoming releases. Yes, that means free books! Maybe I'll have a completely different answer to this question after I've attended.

Last year, I wasn't blogging, and I'd never even heard of BEA. 
I feel incredibly excited and honored to be able to attend this year. 

I cannot wait to meet all of you who are going.
I already miss those of you who cannot attend.  

I also want to apologize for being slow to reply to comments and visit other blogs in the past few weeks! I'll be back at it soon. Planning for this trip has been time consuming, but a lot of fun!

If you've attended BEA before, what's your number one tip?
If you're going for the first time, what are you most looking forward to about it?
If you're not able to go, what's one thing you want to know about the event?




After BEA, the Summer Series Challenge begins on June 1. 
I hope you can join the fun!

  1. I'm so jealous, but have a GREAT time! I have exams which is why I can't attend, but hopefully next year! *fingers crossed* And all I really know is that there are a LOT of ARCs and that you get to meet a LOT of authors, so you're wonderfully lucky. I hope you have a fabulous time, Lauren! :)
