NYC Week!

We've been a little quiet on the blog lately, but that's only because we're prepping for a WEEK OF AWESOME in NYC!

Frankie, Sara, and I will be traveling back and forth from NYC from Monday-Thursday this week, checking out the awesomeness of events like:

The Teen Author Carnival

BEA events and signings on Tuesday, Wednesday, AND Thursday

This Is Teen event with Meg Cabot,  Libba Bray, and Maggie Stiefvater*

Kidlit Drink Night, BEA edition

... and we're even catching a little Daniel Radcliffe on Broadway!

We're somewhat giddy with the knowledge of all the incredible authors (and fellow bloggers!) we'll meet, the ARCs we're going to snag (Sara has a highlighted spreadsheet -- watch out, people!), and the networking fun we're about to have.

And we're going to share it with you!

This is our first time attending BEA --- though last year, Frankie and I were in NYC during BEA to meet her agent and had quite the adventures! --- but veteran BEA bloggers have prepared us for how exhausting this week can be, so we'll do our best to keep you updated with some fun tidbits and pics, and we're guaranteed to have some epic posts when we get home!

In the meantime, we're packing up snacks and supplies (and extra bags for books to bring home!), readying our itineraries (ok, that's only Sara and I), and prepping our Amtrak tickets/MetroCards/cab fare/walking shoes.

The only question is: We're ready for New York, but is New York ready for the FNC?**

Stay tuned to find out!

* I just about die of the awesomesauce every time I realize that I'm about to meet MEG CABOT, one of my YA icons. (Every time I say her name in my mind, it's totally in all caps.)
** That's super nerdy, but I think I'll keep it. I'm pretty nerdy myself!
