Let's be honest. We all get out of control with book buying sometimes. But this is not a place to judge for that. In fact, here, we embrace it. Binge buying totally pays off in the end. Just think how pretty those books will look on your bookshelves! Imagine the satisfaction of finally buying that book that has been on your list since forever. Well, book conferences are no exception for this. I ended up spending over $100 on books (eek! Don't tell my mom!). I don't regret it though. I have been wanting many of this books for a while, and now was the perfect opportunity to indulge. I also got some books for free though, so this post will be separated into two parts.

I was also lucky enough to meet Evangeline Denmark. It was awesome talking to her about booktube and blogging and she ended up giving me some Curio swag! I also met up with Aaron Michael Ritchey again and talked about his latest book and when he is next going to give a workshop at the library! Of course, both of them also signed books for me.
