We constantly (not-so-humble) brag about how amazing the Bay Area book world is. The relationship between bookish people, authors, and bookstores is out of this world. It’s thanks to this amazingness that the Bay Area Bloggers <3 Authors Event was born and had a successful second year (see year one here!).
Saturday, March 10th, NYMBC and Books, Inc – Santa Clara hosted 13 authors and bloggers and let us tell you…
