Holly Black & Sarah Rees Brennan Book Signing

























Holly Black & Sarah Rees Brennan signed last night at Murder By The Books in Houston, TX.

It was such a blast! Not only were a few of us MM admins able to spend time together to celebrate a birthday and enjoy a fun girls night together, but we were hugely entertained by Sarah Rees Brennan and Holly Black. I have never laughed so hard or had so much fun at a book signing.

From stories of Sarah telling us how she did her research for The Demon's Covenant, to Holly and Sarah using their "pet dog" aka their plush Octopus to show us how a con would work, we had non-stop laughs. If the two of them and Cassandra Clare were to go on the road and do a show together, we'd all be there for guaranteed non-stop laughs.

For those that received a post card from Holly for the signing, she gave out the 1st chapter of Red Glove, the sequel to White Cat which will be out around this time next year. Yes, it's GOOD! Sarah's also treated those there in person with an alternative chapter to The Demon's Lexicon. Which is also good.

Both Holly and Sarah have more projects they're working on. Sarah's third book in The Demon's Lexicon series will be out next year. Holly Black has two more books in the White Cat series (YAY). One will be released next year at this time and one in 2012 around the same time.

We had a great time last night and loved visiting with Holly and Sarah, as well as with other Mundie Moms! It was great meeting all of you last night. We can't wait to have our chat with Holly and Sarah on the 31st of this month. Meeting them in person and being able to chat with both of them was so much fun! We highly recommend reading their newest releases, The Demon's Covenant and White Cat.

  1. I'm glad you had fun. I saw them in Cincy and man, it WAS a great time. Those two are hilarious...great signing. I have a video interview with them but I'm afraid it won't be up until later this week as I'm headed to New York tomorrow and I need some help making sure the video gets loaded. Technology confuses me...
