We were also given goodie bags with ARCs and swag. One of the ARCs was Susan Dennard’s The Luminaries and i’m.ridiculously excited to read it!

An Evening with Jay Kristoff:

I never bother with Halloween plans, when I saw Jay Kristoff was doing an event there was no way I was missing it. The talk was chaired by Joe Abercrombie, they talked about Empire of the Vampire, writing and when he met George RR Martin. After the talk we had the chance to get books signed.
