I hope that someday I can plan ahead and attend one of these events. I've never been to LA (or CA for that matter) and would love to tour around with my virtual book blogging buddies. I would really have loved to have attended the events with Vanina Marsot and Andrew Sean Greer. I just took part in a Twitter book club discussing ASG's latest novel, The Story of a Marriage.
