Hello my fellow book readers. The awesome BookCon convention is only a couple days away Saturday May 31, 2014 at Javits convention center in NYC. There are going to be many talented authors ranging from different genre of books, as majority of them will be autographing throughout the day. I'll advise you if you are attending panels and doing autograph signings of your favorite authors, you might have to sacrifice one for the other. Many of these autographs lines will be extremely long. Some authors will have first come first serve bases, so please check the BookCon website to see if your favorite author falls into that category.
If you have not bought your tickets, what are you waiting for! Procrastinating to buy tickets when you arrive at the convention doors, is never the best option. Save yourself the frustration, buy the tickets online right now. BookCon Tickets
I will be at panels mostly throughout the day instead of getting autograph. If you want to hang with me at BookCon, here is the list of panels I will be attending.
11:00am-12pm
Veronica Roth (Divergent Series) in conversation with Alex London (The Proxy Series)
Location: Special Events Hall
1:00pm-2:00pm
Epic Storytelling with Holly Black (The Spiderwick Chronicles), Cassandra Clare (The Mortal Instruments Series) and Maggie Stiefvater (Shiver Series)
Location: Room 1E07
3:30pm - 4:00pm
The Fault In Our Stars
Location: Special Events hall
4:15pm- 5:15pm
Dystopian Future: Are they Science-Fact-or-Fiction?
Location: Room 1E07
Just a reminder, BookCon staff will be clearing the Special Event Hall after each panel. No other panel will be cleared. The lines will not start until one hour before each panel begins. Anyone who shows up prior to one hour before each panel will be turned away.
I have been told this before, arrived at a panel the time they specify, and the lines already have 50+ people in line. From con experience, I always come an hour or more before any panel starts. It all depends how popular the event or person is.
