A Court of Mist and Fury Book Signing






 So I’d say my first time attending a book signing was a complete success! Not only did I get to meet one of my favorite authors but also one of my favorite booktubers Christine Riccio! Let’s talk about it :D 

There was a 100 seat max for seating at the event but 250 spots available. To get a guaranteed seat of the 100 you had to buy the book at 9 am that morning because it was first come first serve. Also there was a limit of 3 books and each book got a wrist band. My best friend and I got there at about 8 (LA traffic, I tell ya!) and there was already a line! Even a few people camped out over night!




So finally the line starts moving and once you buy the book you get a wrist band with a letter. Luckily my best friend and I got the second to last wrist band that had an A on it! 

The event didn’t start until 6:30 but they started seating at 5:30. Fast-forward to 4:30 and we are back at Barnes and Noble. There is already an unofficial line formed in the store. Eventually they separated us by wrist band color and letter and we finally had our seats.

Sarah and Christine come out and the first thing we talk about is food lol. Sarah loves In n Out burgers. After a while Christine steered the conversation to what we were all there for: A Court of Mist and Fury. Christine had great questions lined up for us and they were hilarious! 




A couple of my favorite parts from the night was when Sarah took out her original copy of Throne of Glass and said that whenever she goes to book signings she asks her fans to sign her book too. The other part was when some person left their number on one of the pages and the security guard called the number for her. It was pure awkward hilarity that ensued after that! 

Once it was my and Rebecca’s (my best friend) turn to get our books signed we went up there full of excitement. Rebecca had Christine sign her “Book Lion” sweater and I had her sign my kindle and we got a picture with her! Sadly there were no pictures allowed to be taken with Sarah but she was still so nice and she complimented and loved my hair.


All in all it was a great first signing and I seriously can NOT wait for more!
