Age 30+ ... A Lifetime of Books: Upcoming Book Festivals and Meet & Greet?

Who AM I?

That's a good question ... I'm a daughter, a wife, a mother, a sister, a friend ... and there's so much more! But for the purpose of this blog I am a first and foremost a reader.

When I was in the first grade I read The Hobbit and my love of Fantasy took root. By the time I left elementary school I had completed the entire series as well as The Belgariad by David Eddings. Seventh grade brought me the beginning of Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time series ... which is still not complete. High school and college introduced me to the classics and to history. My reading disappeared for several years when I had a child. Then I started a book club and it came back in full force.

Today I read anything that catches my eye ... at the moment that includes historical fiction, fantasy, literary fiction, and any titles I find interesting. I'm always on the lookout for the next great find ... any suggestions?

Upcoming Book Festivals and Meet & Greet?

If you live in the US, check out this link from Publisher's Weekly. It's a list of many upcoming Book Festivals throughout the country.

I'll be attending the Baltimore Book Festival, likely with several members of my book club. Anyone else going?! I'd love to meet you there ... we could do a Book Blogger's Meet & Greet!
