LA Times Festival of Books 2010

IT'S FINALLY HERE! The biggest event of the year- the LA Festival of Books at the UCLA Campus! This year promises to be even bigger and better than usual, so we hope you can JOIN US! For a taste of what's in store, check out our photos and videos from last year! Also, check out this years Author List and let us know which authors you want to see!

Unfortunately, this year ABC cannot make this an official club event. However, many of the club members and officers are going so we hope you also attend and meet up with us there! A majority of us will be driving up on Sunday but let us know which day you plan to be there and we'll make sure to look for you.
WHEN: April 24 and 25
WHERE: UCLA
COST/TICKETS: Free! However, you need tickets for the indoor panels! They are free (but ticketmaster has a ~$1 transaction fee) but be sure to log on to ticketmaster on April 18th at 12pm to get them.
TRANSPORTATION: ABC cannot provide transportation because this IS NOT an official event. However, if you want to go and will have trouble getting there, contact us and we will get you in touch with someone who may be able to carpool!

For the first time, ABCers are going to collectively read a book by one of the authors at the Festival!! If you are going on Sunday, you all have a choice between any Meg Cabot's Airhead [her newest is called Runaway and is the 3rd in the Airhead series] (11am panel) and Seth Grahame-Smith's Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter (12 pm panel). Most likely, it will be impossible to attend both panels so be sure to get panel tickets for the author you are reading!

LA Times Book Festival





ABCers hit UCLA to attend the LA Times Book Festival. They met tons of authors, actors, singers, and watched a lecture by Ray Bradbury! Be sure to join us for the 2009 Festival!

The Kite Runner Advanced Screening



Thanks to Jolene, ABC won a free advanced screening to the Kite Runner. We hosted the movie for over 150 people in Irvine and became the third largest online group in the country. Because of our success online, we were featured in the LA Times!
