| Autographed with free tattoos |
Last week on May 16, 2014, I went to my second book signing
event and got the chance to meet one of my favorite YA (young adult) authors,
Susan Ee, who is the best-selling author of the “Angelfall” series. There are 2
books in the series so far but good news to hear that book 3 is coming out this
summer 2014! At the signing, she actually showed me the first page of the draft
she wrote for book 3 which I’m really anticipating to read. The autograph
session took place at the San Jose Marriot Hotel in Downtown, San Jose. It was
really sweet of Susan to sign 2 of my books since some authors only prefer to
sign 1 book. She also gave out free tattoos which were images taken from the
covers of her books! I like how her novels’ settings take place in the San
Francisco Bay Area, which is the place where I grew up and this familiarity makes
it easier for me to picture the setting very well in my mind. At first, I
thought Susan resides in Palo Alto but she actually lives in San Jose. How cool
is that! This means that I can attend her next book tour since she lives in the
same area as me and is very likely to hold a book signing here in San Jose.
A little description of Book 1 in my own words:
After angels descended from heaven to take over the world,
Penryn, the human girl and protagonist of the story, must cooperate with one of
the “good’ fallen angels, Raffe, to stop the “bad” ones from wiping out the
human population. Penryn also needs to save her sister, Paige, who got
kidnapped by the angels when she tried to prevent Raffe’s wings from being cut off
by his evil counterparts.
Overall, her novels were a very good read that I remember when
I started reading Book 1 of the “Angelfall” series, I was hooked to the point
where I didn’t want to put the book down until I finish reading to the end. As
a result, I ended up finishing this book an entire day, from morning to
midnight without getting any eyestrain at all. The end of book 1 left me
impatient and wanting to know what happens next in book 2. I have also finished
reading book 2 and now waiting for the release of book 3.
Hollywood will also be making a movie for the Book 1,
“Angelfall” which is currently in production. I’m very curious about who the
cast will be. While I wait for book 3, I will also be on the lookout for this
movie and updates about the cast.
