This past weekend I went to Bookcon. Bookcon was formerly Power Reader Day which was the very last day of BEA- Book Expo America. I originally bought my ticket when it was still Power Reader Day & then they changed to it to Bookcon.
Bookcon is held in the Javtis Center in New York City.
I believe they changed it to Bookcon to appeal to a bigger audience. You could tell people Bookcon's like ComicCon only for books. While I enjoyed the idea, the day was beyond chaotic.
I was lucky enough to spend the day with my good friends from Booktube, Jessica & Jamie & Jeff.
&& I finally met Kassidy! :-)
The highlight of the day was at 12:30 in the Bookcon lounge where the Booktuber meet up was held. I was honestly expecting to meet some of my friends who I talk to regularly on Youtube & maybe a few fans. It was a huge turnout! I want to say at least 150 people showed up! It was beyond amazing meeting all of you guys!
You have no clue how awesome it made me feel that you watch my videos and love a ton of the same books as I do! It was a very honoring & humbling experience, one that I will forever be grateful for.
You all are amazing and I can't thank you enough for coming out to the meet up & watching my videos! I love you all!
The rest of the photos are for the meetup!
I fianlly got to meet Jeremy & Jeffrey! They are awesome & also very very tall!
Also got to chat with the lovely Liz from Elizziebooks! She is awesome!
& of course the lovely Ariel! Her hair is just as magical in person as it is in videos!
I hope to attend Bookcon next year & I hope I get to meet even more of you guys!
You rock!
You rock!
So glad you were able to attend! Looks like you had an amazing time. I hope I'm able to make it next year!
