Welcome to BEA 2015!
It's always exciting to get a new book, and there were tons of new books to get excited about at this event!
Javits Center in NYC |
The Javits Center was bustling with ideas, inspired by the
creative spirit that lives behind the pages.
Our trip was a blast, and we had fun being in the middle of the hubbub. Books were flying fast as people gathered to share their stories. There was a lot to see, and we took our time to enjoy it all.

DeleteHeidi- It was so much fun- but like Disneyworld, you can't get to everything. Luckily- they have planners to look at so you can try to catch the authors and booths you most want to see. We still missed lots of authors and booths we wanted to visit, but tried to focus on how happy we were to meet the people we met and visit the booths we made it to that day. :) ~Jess and Stephanie
ReplyDeleteI can imagine how it must be awesome for all the booklovers to be one in place to together. It must've been brilliant ^^
ReplyDeleteOlivia- Being with so many people who love books is magical. Every book event makes me excited because I see all the other people who are just as happy being surrounded by books as I am. :) ~L
