Follow Friday - Conventions ?


Follow Friday is a feature created by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read.  It's a fun blog hop where you meet other book bloggers and find people to follow.
Question: We are about to see a lot of posts & tweets about reader conventions, RT, BEA, ALA and many more are starting soon.  Which one would you love to attend? Where and Why?
I'd liked to go to any of them.   BEA or ALA being the two that I've heard the most about.  I'm actually kind of considering going to ALA this summer because I realized Chicago isn't THAT far from Louisville.  But I probably won't because logistics/expense.  There's no way on God's green earth that I would drive to Chicago myself (I think my city driving skills max out at Louisville).  Where would I stay? Who would I stay with? Where would I leave my car?  Feel free to try to convince me I shouldn't be such a nervous nelly and should go.  Really I'd love to. I want to go hang out with other book lovers, get a few ARCs and party it up literary style.

Never done ALA and Chicago is close for me too! Was there last year for RT!

I think BEA would be a lot of fun! So many ARCs and cover reveals!! But NYC is too intimidating for me on my own! I'd definitely need a traveling buddy!

Here's my Follow Friday

Have a GREAT weekend!

I would love to go to BEA. But Chicago is a fun city as well. Maybe you could go by bus? It would be so exciting to be able to meet both authors and bloggers.

I'm an old GFC and Bloglovin' follower, wishing you a wonderful weekend.

Here's my FF post for this week.

I really wish I could attend BEA this year but I don't think it's possible for the same exact reasons you've stated about Chicago! However, next year I think I'm going to save up and come up with a solid plan so that I can go because I really want to meet authors & and fellow bloggers alike :)
