Brandon Mull Book Signing

Beth loves reading! Her favourite book series (other than Harry Potter) are Fablehaven & the Candy Shop Wars (both written by Brandon Mull). Beth has the entire series of these books & was thrilled to hear that Brandon Mull was visiting our local Barnes & Noble bookstore for a book signing. The book signing started at 6:00 pm & although we arrived nearly half an hour early we still had a two-hour wait (I actually managed to completely read a book whilst we were lining up). It was worth the wait, though. Brandon Mull was a really nice guy who seemed genuinely excited about his books & all the people reading them. He spent some time taking to Beth whilst he signed all her books & then gave her a signed poster & bookmark. He also gave her a heads-up about his upcoming book & that the rights to Fablehaven & Candy Shop Wars have been acquired & that they will be made into films.
