Melissa Marr Signing

I have been obsessing about this for days. I even printed out the Mapquest early! Melissa was amazing, and such a good public speaker. She came across as a really nice and genuine person. My fiance, Kevin, even liked her. He hasn't read a book such he left school. (Shameful...I know).

Melissa and me (of course)

The one thing that irked me about this whole experience was that I had to buy another book. I originally bought Fragile Eternity from Barnes and Nobel who told me that it would be shipped on time. I waited and waited for the mail to arrive...lo and behold no novel! I got on to my UPS tracker only to find out there was a delay. It wouldn't arrive till the 30th. They lied to me! It all ended well though.

I am really glad that I was given the chance to meet her in person. What an amazing experience this being my first book signing. I really hope that more authors come to Nashville soon. I also hope that they are all as sweet as Melissa.

One of the wristbands given out. Huh? I wonder why I selected the Dark Court.

Yay! She really signed my book!

The little message there (just in case you can't read it thanks to my crappy camera)

"To Christina, chose happiness."

Side note: I would like to give a special thanks to Kevin. I would not have known how to get to the signing. He went with me (even though he was not interested), did not complain (even though he could have), and lied to me about how not dorky I acted in front of Melissa (I was totally speechless). Thank you, baby. You are amazing.
