BookExpo America discussion

I didn't see a thread for this year's posts and always enjoy reading everyone's recaps. If/when you post your recap, share the link here.

My co-bloggers and I did a daily recap and may do individual full recaps as well. Plus we did a one question mini interview with all the authors we met! This link will bring you to a page with all the blog posts.

I haven't done a recap post yet, but I did write about the fact that some of the ARCs obtained at BEA/BookCon have been showing up on eBay. - https://thebooktrovert.com/2016/05/16...

I visited your blog Jessica. Loved your posts.

THANKS.

Thank you, Elizabeth :)

Nicole-very well said. ARCs going straight to eBay piss me off. I am going to share with my friends and some of my readers/book club members but I would never dream of profiting from them. All of my book haul will be in the hands of people who will love them.

Sharing I totally understand. In fact I got Kareem Abdul Jabbar's book with the intention of reading it but then giving it to my dad (I had it autographed to my dad, he'll appreciate that more than I will.) Many of the YA books I grabbed I will give to my nieces after I read them.

I'm doing a series but here are the first two posts!

Part 1: Overview
Part 2: Middle Grade Lit

I have only posted about day 1 so far and will be doing a series but if you want to follow they are here: http://sarakiplinger.wordpress.com (The Library Princess) I am also going to be posting any book reviews there so follow me! I have made so many connections from all this and am so thankful!

Just visited your blog.

Great post and blog.

Thanks for sharing.

Finally got around to writing a recap post! https://thebooktrovert.com/2016/05/22...

Here's my post on the books of BEA:

I'll have another post on Book Con later this week.

Here's my BEA Recap post from my 3rd year: http://www.pinkpolkadotbooks.com/2016...

I'm also doing a (pretty) long series.
Day Zero - Arrival To Chicago

Day One - BEA Begins

I'm loving reading everyone's recaps. It's interesting to me how we all had similar but at the same time very different experiences.

If anyone wants to read a not really recap but fun BEA post, we asked 40 different authors at the show what their favorite word was--I just posted the third volume of answers. The last will be next Friday.

Day 2

Going to check out their favorite word. That should be something awesome.

THANKS.

Thanks! It was so much fun to do! I hope you enjoy them. If you think of it, check back on Friday for the last one. Justin Cronin gave us a sentence instead of a word and it's one of my favorite answers so I saved it for last :)

Here is my recap!

It was my first time at BEA and BookCon - , I did do a Book Haul video of the free books I got there - in case any of you want to see it. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dM0Kj...
