During the last weekend in June, almost 450 historical novel enthusiasts gathered in Denver, Colorado, to discuss all things historical. Most were writers, some published, some not. All were avid readers of the genre. There were authors, editors, and agents. There were big names and unknowns and everyone was friendly and supportive. There was a book signing event with over 200 authors. There were keynote speeches by C.C. Humphreys, Karen Cushman (more on her later) and Diana Gabaldon. There was even a costume parade and a late night sex scene reading (although to be honest I did not stay awake for that).

Thank goodness this book had a happy ending, that's all I have to say.by Nick HornbyPart way through this book, I wanted it to end.... quickly. But it didn't. Part annoying, part thought-provoking, mostly I just wanted to choke most of the characters. And that was mostly the point of the book. Glad I finished it all...by Mark HaddonI really enjoyed this book. Quick read with fun plot twists. Great insight into the autistic mind. It really helped me understand someone I spend time with.
