I really like Laura Griffin - Snapped was a favorite of mine. :)<br /><br />I've been meaning to read more from Kristan Higgins and give Lisa Dale a try. And I need to catch up on Rachel Gibson's series.Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12055116610295076439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-55757083826085134312011-10-24T11:42:39.458-04:002011-10-24T11:42:39.458-04:00Really cool, Christine!

I'm jealous because I didn't get to meet Ms Higgins either at RWA :(nathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02626894830238717124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-32780852418342763442011-10-24T11:20:21.093-04:002011-10-24T11:20:21.093-04:00I've read the Laura Griffin and the Rachel Gib...I've read the Laura Griffin and the Rachel Gibson. They are both great.<br /><br />Sounds like you had a fantastic day!<br /><br />And oooh, Brenda Novak has a historical coming out? Interesting. I adore her RS, so will also try the historical as well!

So sorry! Th...<b>Dru:</b> I should have told you about it! So sorry! The NJ RWA Chapter hosts their annual conference and book signing every year around this time in Woodbridge, NJ. I'll make a point to mention in next year in advance. <br /><br />I'm excited to read the new romantic suspense books I got from Novak and Griffin. I haven't really read much in that genre. <br /><br /><b>Joanne: </b> I DID see Lauren Willig at the signing, but I didn't stop by her table. This is another example of why I should have mentioned the signing on my blog <i>before</i> I went and not after!!! I would have picked up one of her books upon your recommendation! I did notice she was very friendly and upbeat, chatting with readers who stopped at her table. I'm sorry I didn't stop now.. <br /><br /><b>Brandy:</b> I adore Kristan Higgins' books. Adore! <i>Inside</i> will be my first Brenda Novak book. If I don't read her upcoming historical first, that is! <br /><br /><b>Phyl:</b> Brenda spoke very highly of you and your incredible quilting talent when I explained how I came to know of her Silent Auction for Diabetes Research. She told me to tell you she says "hello." :) I am getting her historical too! I think I'll probably read it before I read <i>Inside</i>. My book pile is HUGE right now. <br /><br /><b>Kate:</b> You look great in the picture and you didn't seem nervous at all at the signing. Very professional and approachable. xo<br /><br /><b>Brie:</b> All of these authors were so nice. I know that's such a blah word... but it's true. Very friendly, eager to chat about books or whatever, really. I'm really looking forward to digging into these books! <br /><br /><b>Alex:</b> Thanks! It was a fun little jaunt. ;)<br /><br /><b>Hilcia:</b> It would have been fun if we could have gone together with Mariana and Natalie, too, but it was such a busy weekend for everyone. Maybe next year! <br /><br />Lisa Dale is so sweet--she was on my list of authors to see because of your recommendation. I'm looking forward to <i>Slow Dancing on Price's Pier</i>!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00420773211895134710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-78897684082225222742011-10-23T23:03:46.199-04:002011-10-23T23:03:46.199-04:00It looks like a great time, Christine!

I love Kristan Higgins, Brenda Novak (had no idea she was releasing a historical romance, thanks for the heads up), Laura Griffin and Rachel Gibson. I haven’t read anything by Grant (although I do enjoy her blog), Linden or Dale, but since they are in such great company I’m guessing they must be great as well, so I’m adding them to my TBR pile. <br /><br />Fantastic post!Briehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01694232807189281284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-34124208826646359632011-10-23T14:09:32.638-04:002011-10-23T14:09:32.638-04:00It was so awesome to see you again!
