Coastal Magic Convention 2017 Wrap–up #CMCon17

Daytona Beach in February anyone? Yes please!!! I had a wonderful time in Florida at the Coastal Magic Convention. This was my first year attending and I'll be back next year.

My husband came along for a little mini vacation, which was a great chance to get out of the Michigan cold! Bookish fun during the day and into the evening, followed by dinners and some couple time with the hubby. It was a spectacular 3 day weekend. The weather was great, the location was great, and the people were great.

I met tons of awesome authors, bloggers, and readers during this weekend. I got a few photos of authors that were an absolute joy and I recommend all of their books! I've reviewed books by all three of these authors here the Shelf Addiction Blog. Check outKait Ballenger book reviews, Lara Adrian book reviews, and Jennifer Estep book reviews.

Besides the authors that I was familiar with, I made connections with very talented authors that I have yet to read. My TBR (to be read) list has grown even more! I can't express enough, how cool everyone was. The small 300 attendees at the con really was the perfect environment to meet people in a less hectic setting.

I have an awesome book nerd event to share! ​Today is the opening of the 5th Annual general registration of the Coastal Magic Convention! The convention takes place in Daytona Beach, Florida this upcoming February.

If you live in a place like me, in February you'll probably be buried under 10 feet of snow.  This could be a welcome respite. Not only will you hang out with amazing authors, fabulous featured bloggers, and fellow book nerds - you can take a mini vacation in the middle of the winter. What's not to love about that?
