Yep-That's where I was this weekend. It was "Mystery Comes to Michigan" at my library this weekend. % fabulous authors came to discuss their books and writing and stuff. They were a lot of fun. And they all have websites so check out Suzanne Arruda's Jade Cameron series, Cordelia Frances Biddle's site for Martha Beale and more, Chris Grabenstien's for mayhem at the Jersey shore, Kathryn Miller Haines' for her take on World War II New York, and Peter Leonard's new Michigan crime fiction.
I learned alot and had lots of fun. Thanks to some great people.
Then if that wasn't enough, the next day was the Kerrytown Bookfest. A whole day of books and authors. I got to see "my" authors interacting on different panels and I got to see some old favorites (Big shout out to Beverly Jenkins) and I met some new authors. Great, a longer TBR pile. *sigh* the trails of being a bibliophile. I'll have to tell you more about Kerrytown before the event next year. It's a great way to spend a Sunday and a fun city to spend it in.
Gotta go and look up some things and place holds on all those books I didn't buy.

Kathy-Patti Abbott here asking if you'd like to write about a "banned book" for October 3rd on my blog. It doesn't have to be long or really a review. We're trying to bring attention to this for Banned Books week from the ALA. I'm at aa2579@wayne.edu
