It’s time for our annual Comic Con wrap-up! aka why Lo and Christina are exhausted and totally scatterbrained this week.
First – and most importantly – we got to squeeze each other…
us.
Next, Hall H.
We saw this…
in. person.
And this…
*homer drool*
Stood in lines just like this…
got to hang with our AdoraAgent Holly Root and meet some our amazing agent-mates… (some of which were already in their jammies)
Lauren Billings, Alison Cherry, Victoria Schwab, Christina Hobbs, Holly Root, Rae Carson and Myra McEntire. #TEAMROOT
Silliness ensued…
don’t ask.
there’s no “not crazy” explanation for this.
tessa loves our edward prop, clearly.
Lo organized an amazing What’s Hot in YA panel…
standing room only FTW
L to R: Nathan Bransford (best.moderator.ever.), Leigh Bardugo, Myra McEntire, Scott Westerfeld, Melina Marchetta, Lish McBride, Tahereh Mafi, Kami Garcia, James Dashner (who Lo did not get nearly enough time to fangirl. sigh.)
followed by an amazeballs signing.
Loved on so many wonderful people… (some of which we didn’t get pictures of *cries*)
Learned that Myra and Christina have no poker face…
And basically had the most fabulous time ever.
For serious. BEST. TIME. EVER.
BEST. I miss your face.
how about next time i get to come too & squeeze you both IRL
xo
how about i love this plan.
omg it was so lovely to meet you both!!!
We don’t really know each other, but we have mutual friends and I really wanted to come up to you and thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for putting Melina Marchetta on this panel.
She is my most favourite author ever and getting to meet her was a dream come true.
Yeah, so, this is my thanks.
aw yay!! i’m so glad you were there! i saw you, i think? anyway, yes, she was a dream. she’s more amazing in person if that’s even possible. so glad you came!!
Thank you for making Myra come out, the best YA panel EVAR and of course, the best hugs. I can’t wait to be able to see you both outside of an event that’s super busy so we can have time to talk about all of the things.
*hugs*

YES! I saw you for like two nanoseconds. UNACCEPTABLE.
oh who’s that behind that creepy edward and why are they in a closet???
IDK WHY ARE THEY IN A CLOSET?
I’m not super crazy jealous about the author snuggles and/or that you saw Ian S. in person. Nope. Not at all.
(Hopefully, maybe!) One day I will see you both and you had best prepare yourselves for tacklehugs (and possible clinging). I’m thrilled you guys had an awesome time, though. CC, *wistful sigh,* maybe one of these days…

Girl, you’d better get out here for next year. Just saying.
Looks like it was a great time. Wish I could have been there.

It was so fun! And Victoria Schwab was there representing the VICTORIA’s of the world, so that was awesome. *hug*
