So this past weekend my friend and I went to Book Con, a book convention (Now you know why I haven't posted any new DIY's.) I love books and I was hanging out with my friend so it was fun. But for the actual event I was highly disappointed it was not as epic or as big as I thought it would be. Maybe because in my mind I kept comparing it to Comic Con I expected it to be the same level of awesomeness. First of all the place was kinda of small and it was packed. There were long lines for everything and people were kinda of rude, they would cut you off and bump into you, Not very nice. But the exhibitors were very friendly. I got a free book sign by very nice author and got lots of free totes. There were a lot of authors I never heard about so that was a let down. The most annoying thing was that next to book con was another convention: Book Expo. OMG that looked way better than Book Con. It was bigger, less crowded and there to more exhibits. It looked so empty compared to Book Con. What sucked was that people with Book Con tickets couldn't enter the Book Expo but people with Book Expo tickets could go Book Con so not fair, I felt rip off. Overall this event was a fail, could have been better. But I had a great time with my friend. I hope next year they promote more the Book Expo because it looked so much more grand than Book Con. I would have went there instead of Book Con. So let me know if any of you guys went to Book Con? What did you think? and Did you ever go to any other convention? Tell me about your experience?
