Book Expo America 2012 - Part One

Book Expo America gives booksellers, librarians, media, bloggers and book lovers a chance to meet publishers and writers, to learn about new releases, and to gather copies of upcoming books.  The week was crazy, hectic, and fun. 

Aside from the actual BEA, there are book events to celebrate the occasion and a chance to meet other blogger and booklovers.  This is Teen and Scholastic opened the week with a sneak peek into the latest works by James Dashner (Infinity Ring: A Mutiny in Time), Maggie Stiefvater (The Raven Boys),  Eliot Schrefer (Endangered), Sharon Cameron (The Dark Unwinding), Donna Cooner (Skinny), Jeff Hirsch (Magisterium), Raina Telgemeir (Drama) and Kate Messner (Capture the Flag). 

Here are snaps of the authors performing excerpts of the upcoming releases.

I'll post about actual BEA events next.
