We were honored to have Courtney Alameda, the author of Shutter, come as a special guest to our Book Club meeting!
I met Courtney at the Provo Library some years ago. Courtney use to coordinate all the events and author signings at the library so we saw each other frequently and I quickly came to love her and her vibrant personality. Courtney was usually dressed up in a head to toe costume for events and hosting over the top author signings. I knew right when I first saw her dressed as a Grisha (Shadow & Bone reference), that we were kindred book party spirits.
When Courtney told me she was working on publishing her first book I told her,
"...When you get published, I'm throwing you a book party and that's that."
I was true to my word.
Read on to see how I totally freaked out all my members during our meeting!
