To my fellow
Canadians, are you ready to mark your calendars? Here are some upcoming
YA bookish events to look forward to in September!
Smart Chicks Kick It! Tour
James Dashner, bestselling author of the Maze Runner series, will be stopping by Toronto to celebrate the release of A Mutiny in Time, the first novel in the Infinity Ring series.
Susin Nielsen will be celebrating the release of her new novel, The Reluctant Journal of Henry K. Larsen, with a book launch in Vancouver!
Maggie Stiefvater will be visiting Brampton to promote the release of her latest novel, The Raven Boys, the first novel in the Raven Cycle.
Jenny Han and Siobhan Vivian are coming to Canada to promote the release of their new co-written novel, Burn for Burn, which will be the first book in a trilogy! The store location has yet to be revealed, but Jenny Han tweeted that it will be at a Chapters location in the Toronto area on Thursday, September 27! Exciting, right? When more exact details are available, I'll be sure to add it here.
EDIT on Sept 10/12: The location/time has been announced! Siobhan Vivian tweeted the details today.
I'll be attending the event for James Dashner for sure, and depending on the exact location/time for the Jenny Han and Siobhan Vivian event, I'll definitely be trying to make it to that one too! After a rather slow summer for YA book events in Ontario, it's really awesome to see more authors coming to Canada this month!
Will you be attending any of these events?
