I Met Allie Larkin!

So, have you heard of the new novel Stay by Allie Larkin? Yessss? Good! Well, luckily enough, Allie happens to be from my hometown and I got to meet her the other night!

She did a really cool talk at one of the local colleges, and told us about how the book got started and about her earlier versions of the story. She then did a reading from the book... it's so cool to hear a book read from the author themselves, then she did a Q and A session. She was very inspiring, funny, and completely down to earth.

Afterward, she signed books, and when I approached her, she remembered me from winning her book in Allison Winn Scotch's huge contest this summer and I was so flattered and happy! Then she took her picture with me and my best friend, Taylor, to show Allison! It was such a great night, and Allie is incredible! READ STAY!!!
