Me on In My Mailbox (19)

IMM is hosted every week over at The Story Siren by Kristi.

A little more than a week until the Cassandra Clare & Holly Black signing in Burnaby. If you're in the Lower Mainland (that's BC, Canada, if you didn't know), head for the Chapters at Metrotown on Monday the 18th. The signing event starts at about 7pm. I'll be there way early, maybe 5/5:30pm. It's mostly so I can buy Clockwork Angel and White Cat and Red Glove beforehand, but also because I assume I'll still be slow and hobbling around on crutches. :) The SkyTrain trip sure is going to be interesting, as will getting into the mall.

My dad says to milk the broken ankle as much as I can for seats and getting to the beginning of the signing line and stuff. It sounds a bit mean, but my mobility sucks, my balance isn't the best, and this event is going to be packed. I totally expect to see 200 people show up.

Also, I've been in an odd not really reading phase right now. I've had Amy Plum's Die for Me for the longest time and haven't gotten past the first page. *sigh* I think I've had cabin fever this week.

Bought:
City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare (I caved and ordered a copy online, but there was no extra Jace to Clary letter. Then I went to Chapters today and got a copy with the letter. The non-letter copy will be a signed giveaway copy, possibly with event swag.)

Borrowed from the library:
Tenth Grade Bleeds by Heather Brewer (e-book)
Desires of the Dead by Kimberly Derting (e-book)
