Los Angeles Times Festival of Books 2017 - Part 1

Another FOB is in the books (heh). Now I have to wait until next April. I swear I'd go every weekend if they had it that often.

As far as bringing home truckloads of books, I actually used a lot of restraint this year:

Yup. This is it.

I got Hard-Boiled Hollywood and Not To Be Missed autographed by the authors. Kenneth Turan is so sweet! We bonded over our love of The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, which is one of his not to be missed films.

The FOB was officially kicked off by the always awesome Trojan Marching Band. Here they are from my not-so-vantage point in line to see Michael Connelly.

More to come...
