Who else is going to YALLWEST? Some of my favorite authors will be there, and I’m so excited to meet them!

Richelle Mead

Vampire Academy Covers

Simone Elkeles

Perfect Chemistry Trilogy

To properly prepare, I’ve been reading as many books by authors who will be there as possible. They were already in my TBR list, so I finally had an excuse to read and neglect other things. So far, I’ve finished

An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir. This is a new favorite. Absolutely LOVED this book!

Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi. Also LOVED this one. All the swoon!

Also I’m so excited for The Crown’s Game! It comes out after YALLWEST, but Evelyn Skye will be there.

Needless to say, I have to bring an extra suitcase JUST for all the books I need to get signed! The only thing that could make YALLWEST better is if Rae Carson and Robin LaFevers also attended. Then I think I might die of happiness. This is a YA booklover’s dream. So excited that I get to chat with other YA historical fantasy authors and some of my fellow authors with Feiwel and Friends Publishing!
