Sad we had to miss another year of @pasadenalovesya but so glad to see so many book lovers for our giveaway today! Thanks Pasadena Library for sponsoring the event. Hope you all got great books to read. Thanks for being patient, wearing 😷, bringing your 👧🏽 👦🏻 and your 🐩, sharing your donations, and for taking all the books! (Well almost all 😵‍💫 we had just a couple boxes left at the end. I believe the friends of the Pasadena library will have a sale soon and you might see the leftovers there!) #pasadenalovesya #pasadenalibrary #hastingsbranchlibrary (at Pasadena Public Library, Hastings Ranch Branch) https://www.instagram.com/p/CT_VUNkrHaB/?utm_medium=tumblr

REBELS & REBIRTH is the 2 pm #pasadenalovesya panel in the auditorium ✨🛸🌱🔮🌏 with @alexadonne (BRIGHTLY BURNING), @mauraisdoomed (ECLIPSE THE SKIES), @caitseal (TWICE DEAD), @marburyjack (EXILE FROM EDEN), moderated by @jenniferbrodywriter (THE CONTINUUM TRILOGY) So some of our books in the photos aren't matching our caption, but that's because we're planning to buy them from the @vromansbookstore pop up store in the library on Saturday 😃 There will also be some backlist books if they were available to get. And yes, EXILE FROM EDEN which releases on Tues, 9/24 will be available a few days early only at the festival! 💚 #plya2019 #bookstagram 📸 by @nmainardi_author and @frootjoos, respectively. https://www.instagram.com/p/B2nH1BHgWi-/?igshid=13hql46g63i8p

Not long now! #pasadenalovesya will take place on SAT 9/21 at Pasadena Public Library, 285 E Walnut St in Pasadena! Starts at noon and ends at 4, though we recommend coming in a half hour or more before if you're planning to shop at the Vroman's pop up bookstore. A word on parking: the library lot normally has a time limit but it won't be in effect during the event. In any case you might want to park next door at the University of Phoenix (take a ticket to enter, and park in any spot marked VISITOR, there will be no charge for parking when you exit). Entrances for the outdoor library lot and the covered university lot are all on Garfield between Walnut and Corson (a one-way street). Please take note of street parking signs and meters if you aren't parking in one of the two lots. Drive/bus/bike/walk safely, friends! See you all soon. #plya2019 #pasadenalibrary https://www.instagram.com/p/B2ktZ_cA7hN/?igshid=1orobkthmpby8
