I know right? Three book signings in one month. More like 2 weeks actually. I’d firstly like to thank Indigo/Chapters/Coles for even making these events possible! I’ve met so many of my favourite authors recently and it has honestly been amazing!
Earlier this month I had the privilege to meet M-E Girard and I’m so glad she came back again, this time with the one and only Victoria Schwab! Recently, Victoria Schwab has become one of my favourite authors. I’ve only read 4 of her books so far and 3 three of them I only just read this year. She has quickly jumped to the top of my favourite authors list and I was beyond excited when I found out she would be coming to Indigo Sherway!
We had a giant group discussion on writing techniques and other fun stuff like how much say does an author have when it comes to their book titles and book covers. It was extremely informative and so much fun!
Take a look below for some fun tweets during the event and to also learn more about the books and authors!

This Savage Song by Victoria Schwab
There’s no such thing as safe in a city at war, a city overrun with monsters. In this dark urban fantasy from author Victoria Schwab, a young woman and a young man must choose whether to become heroes or villains—and friends or enemies—with the future of their home at stake. The first of two books.
Kate Harker and August Flynn are the heirs to a divided city—a city where the violence has begun to breed actual monsters. All Kate wants is to be as ruthless as her father, who lets the monsters roam free and makes the humans pay for his protection. All August wants is to be human, as good-hearted as his own father, to play a bigger role in protecting the innocent—but he’s one of the monsters. One who can steal a soul with a simple strain of music. When the chance arises to keep an eye on Kate, who’s just been kicked out of her sixth boarding school and returned home, August jumps at it. But Kate discovers August’s secret, and after a failed assassination attempt the pair must flee for their lives.
Girl Mans Up by M-E Girard
All Pen wants is to be the kind of girl she’s always been. So why does everyone have a problem with it? They think the way she looks and acts means she’s trying to be a boy—that she should quit trying to be something she’s not. If she dresses like a girl, and does what her folks want, it will show respect. If she takes orders and does what her friend Colby wants, it will show her loyalty. But respect and loyalty, Pen discovers, are empty words. Old-world parents, disintegrating friendships, and strong feelings for other girls drive Pen to see the truth–that in order to be who she truly wants to be, she’ll have to man up.

More About The Authors
Victoria Schwab
I am the product of a British mother, a Beverly Hills father, and a southern upbringing. Because of this, I have been known to say “tom-ah-toes”, “like”, and “y’all”. I also suffer from a wicked case of wanderlust, made worse by the fact that wandering is a good way to stir up stories. When I’m not haunting Paris streets or trudging up English hillsides, I’m usually tucked in the corner of a coffee shop, dreaming up monsters.
