Texas Book Festival announces 2014 dates!!!

     You know what they say. "Everything is bigger in Texas!!!"  That leaves no surprise that our book festivals are huge too!  Coming up in October we will get together and celebrate our love of books, reading, authors, libraries, book shops, and everything else related to the stories that draw us out of this world and into another.  
     Check out the websites https://www.texasbookfestival.org/ and http://texasteenbookfestival.org/ for all the information you need in order to attend these fun filled festivals.  Texas Teen Book Festival (formerly Austin Teen Book Festival) is among the largest in the nation and YA authors from all over join in the festivities.  This will take place on October 18th at St. Edward's University.  The Texas Book Festival website says, "Fans of the Texas Book Festival can expect to see more of everything they love about the festival this year, especially in the blocked-off streets surrounding the Capitol. In 2014 the Festival will offer even more on the streets for all to enjoy: pop-up shops, the return of the Texas Monthly BBQ Court, interesting food trucks, and a multitude of opportunities to engage with publishers, indie presses, and unique organizations” Kim says. This festival takes place just outside of the Capitol on South Congress.  The dates are October 25th - 26th.
     Both festivals are free to the public and offer a great opportunity to get out of the house, take in the breathtaking Austin cityscape and introduce your kiddos or friends to the wonderful life changing world of literacy.  Love/Hate Books will be there and we hope to be able to share this experience with you.  Please leave a comment if you are coming and tell us what author you hope to see most!  We will post updates as we know more!  

So many books, so little time!!! <3 <3 Tiffany <3 <3
