Last weekend was the Edmonton Book Bloggers Holiday meetup. While I don't live in Edmonton currently, I made the 3 hour drive to visit my fellow bloggers. I even got to meet two of the newer members, Mandy from Forever Young Adult and Tanya (whose blog I can't find suddenly. Tanya, if you read this, please comment with your blog link and I will come visit you).
We did our secret santa, which is always a blast. Tanya totally spoiled me. Ambur from Burning Impossibly Bright also spoiled me! Fellow bloggers Tammy, Ambur, Cass and Aylee and I also made some baby quilts from the new (or very soon to be) moms in the group.
Gifted:
The Summoning by Kelley Armstrong
The Awakening by Kelley Armstrong

Devonian Garden bookmark - doesn't the one flower look like a tropical fish!
HUGE thanks to Tanya for gifting me this entire trilogy. It was nice to meet you as well!
Racing Savannah by Miranda Kenneally
Thanks so much Ambur! I was so excited to read this! I'm a sucker for anything about horses and this series comes so highly recommended.

Cute bookmark! I haven't read the series from Kelley Armstrong (or any of hers) of yet, but I've heard quite a lot about them. Happy reading, and thanks for stopping by mine earlier. :)
ReplyDeleteOh I love horse books too and can't wait to read Racing Savannah, it sounds excellent! That bookmark is so cute, I love the little tassel, such a sweet gift! Happy reading :)
ReplyDeleteOH. I ACTUALLY REALLY LIKED RACING SAVANNAH. :D
ReplyDeleteThat flower on your bookmark does totally look like a fish!!! And I really hope you like Racing Savannah, Megan!!! I loved that one, and I think you will, too...especially the horse parts! ;D
ReplyDeleteAlso...Tanya doesn't actually have a blog. :P We met her at the Kelley Armstrong signing, and invited her in because we bonded over chatting about books. haha She talked about making a blog, but I don't think she's done it yet. She does have Goodreads though. :)
Thanks again so much for the book Ambur! I am so excited!
DeleteAnd that would make sense why I couldn't find Tanya's blog. I was so confused. I was looking at the blog belonging to Tania/Kirt, but that didn't seem right. Thanks for clearing that up!
I totally see the fish now, awesome! I really loved Armstrong's series, and I need to start her next one. Ahh, I'm so behind! Happy reading, and thanks for stopping by my StS
ReplyDeleteACK can't believe I missed this post. MEGAN! It was so great to meet you; I hope we get to hang out again sometime soon!
ReplyDeleteAnd I can't wait to hear what you think of those review books; they definitely piqued my interest too!
