If so, yum! Did you read LoS? If so, the moderator asked Cassandra Clare a question about Diana's secret, but she revealed the secret, and I swear! There was a collective gasp from the audience. I was so mad.

I've had a few things spoiled at book events because people assume if you're there, you've read everything. It's not always true!<br /><br />I haven't had a chance to read this series, and it's only popped up on my radar since the release of the most recent book. I'll remedy this soon! Promise!<br /><br />It looks like you had a lot of fun, and the book jacket seems pretty awesome. I love that she went to Iceland to research wolves. I'm a little jealous. ;)<br /><br /><a href="http://www.doyoudog-ear.com/" rel="nofollow">Do You Dog-ear?</a>Lindsi https://www.blogger.com/profile/13480991226741687503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6528395365771263864.post-38762642739717396842018-03-23T21:50:37.561-04:002018-03-23T21:50:37.561-04:00WHAT, that is so fun about the jackets, as soon as...WHAT, that is so fun about the jackets, as soon as I type this I am going to go look at mine, thanks for that!

I live 40 mins outside of NYC, so I am near events, but with the distance from my job to home, I would have to take vacation days, and it costs like $25 to go to Manhattan on the train. I was so ecstatic to see an event near my job.
