Event recap with John and Hank Green

Posted by Tales of the Ravenous Reader at 6:00 AM

Friday night I had the pleasure of seeing John and Hank Green at the Fox Theater in Redwood City, CA. It was such a magical night filled with loads of Nerd Fighters (nearly 1,300), several authors Nina LaCour and Heidi Kling, lots of laughter and dancing. I wanted to thank Kepler's, Angela Mann (YA event coordinator) and the owner of the fox theater for being fun and understanding. Here are my pictures and a video of the evening. If you choose to use any of these images/video I do not mind as long as you credit me.

Guess which one I bought?

I would love to see what you have to say :)

“Reading is everything. Reading makes me feel like I've accomplished something, learned something, become a better person. Reading makes me smarter. Reading gives me something to talk about later on. Reading is the unbelievably healthy way my attention deficit disorder medicates itself. Reading is escape, and the opposite of escape; it's a way to make contact with reality after a day of making things up, and it's a way of making contact with someone else's imagination after a day that's all too real. Reading is grist. Reading is bliss.”
