Sarah J. Maas Signing + CONTEST!!!

Hey all! I just got back from the Sarah J. Maas signing and it was awesome!! I was FIRST in line!! Woohoo!! As you might know, I couldn't get into Throne of Glass, sadly, but I ADORED ACOTAR! It was amazing!

Sarah talked about how she basically wrote this after Throne of Glass, in 2009, and was waiting for her agent to come back from maternity leave so they could try selling ToG and Sarah couldn't just sit around doing nothing. Then suddenly this idea came to her when she was listening to music and the first scene just came to her. It was a remarkable story to listen to! Plus Sarah is just a riot!

She is one the sweetest authors I've ever met, though all authors have been incredible! But Sarah is pretty awesome! Loved seeing her and Susan Dennard together last year, those two are a laugh riot together! I loved hearing how they write fan fiction of their own books together. And that if someone died, they'd be living in the other author's world somewhere! Which made me happy in a sense...! LOL!


And because I was feeling...whimsy, I decided I had to buy an extra copy of A Court of Thorns and Roses to giveaway on my blog! A random contest during my time of terror as I am still trying to find a job! But I thought I could swing one more giveaway, because Sarah J. Maas people! And I truly freaking LOVED this one!

So I am giving away a SIGNED copy of ACOTAR here on the blog! US only I'm afraid! Working on getting a job so I can do a big blowout giveaway because I owe you guys SOOOOO much! Keep your fingers crossed! I had what felt like a GREAT interview Friday and I have another on Tuesday, so fingers crossed! ;)

  2. I read all the books that are out in the Throne of Glass series so that's awesome!! I absolutely adore that series. I'm still waiting for my copy of ACOTAR but my friend really wants to read ACOTAR too but her parents won't buy her a copy. I would love to win this for her because she's one of my only reading buddies :D Thanks for the giveaway!

  5. I thought her Throne of Glass series was okay (so far)... nothing super special like it seems to be with everyone else. Throne of Glass was okay, Crown of Midnight was slightly worse, and Heir of Fire - well, that one was MUCH better, in my opinion. I've read ACOTAR, but I really want a signed copy! Thank you so much, Jessica!

  6. I've been reading her Throne of Glass series. I like it enough to be interested in this one, and I was more intrigued after hearing that it's probably more New Adult than Young Adult
