Since reading can sometimes be such a solitary activity, it's nice to encompass more social activities and foster interpersonal relationships.Alisha (MyNeedToRead)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14185092893064416351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4392300972878140739.post-33861890692299310052012-06-06T23:14:44.697-04:002012-06-06T23:14:44.697-04:00@Felicia: You'll be in for a treat when you me...@Felicia: You'll be in for a treat when you meet her! She is truly a Rennaisance woman...it seems she does it all... she writes amazing works, she sings, she crafts, she illustrates.... and she has a full time job. o.O Yet she still manages to be fabulous and down to earth. I recall how, one time when I stopped by the bookstore on another occasion, she struck up a conversation about mashup books (I had no idea that it was "the" Seanan. She was just that chill.)Alisha (MyNeedToRead)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14185092893064416351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4392300972878140739.post-73089018302894756172012-06-06T23:11:46.682-04:002012-06-06T23:11:46.682-04:00@Shelleyrae: Hey girl! ^__^ Yes, it was awesome.

I'm a dyed in the wool introvert, myself...insofar as my batteries are charged with solitude, drained when I'm faced with interacting with many people (something I have learned to work with due to work obligations and such). But there's something about hanging out with bookish folks that makes everything seem A-OK. ^_^Alisha (MyNeedToRead)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14185092893064416351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4392300972878140739.post-88039544835749741772012-06-06T15:24:16.299-04:002012-06-06T15:24:16.299-04:00book parties can be so much fun!

I've been to a few signings, and although there was no food [I'm now plotting to bring some food next time!], it's been great meeting fellow book bloggers.

You would be amazed at how many fellow bloggers you will meet as well as readers who might have book meetups. The authors are great too :)Felicia the Geeky Bloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03960623537536038059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4392300972878140739.post-28444465179860845202012-06-06T04:50:53.363-04:002012-06-06T04:50:53.363-04:00What a great signing event!

I would love to go to events and meet authors and join a book club or just meet people in general who enjoy reading the same things I do but I'm the quite type and that doesn't get me very far lol.
