We showed up at the Borders in Austin around 6:45 and grabbed two seats on the front row. I really didn’t know what to expect and I felt a bit uncomfortable during the reading, but after she greeted us and read some of her new book and a few people asked some questions I started to feel a little more comfortable.
As she wrapped up the questions, we all got in line to get our books signed.It was so exciting to talk to other people who enjoyed the same books that I did.I think it all really clicked for me when a guy made a joke referencing a specific character in the book and everyone laughed together. I’ve always applied books that I read to my daily life, but to be able to share those thoughts with others… it was a brand new experience for me.

Still one of the top 10 events in my life. How often does one of your favorite authors treat you to dinner, then get involved in an active discussion on her books and characters to give you undiscovered information? She’s amazing.
