Book Embargo

September 11th, 2007 is my very own Stephenie Meyer day!

I will be going to the Barnes & Noble in Burlington Massachusetts for a Q&A/Signing. I CANNOT WAIT!!!!

If you go as well, look for me! I will be in a brownish t-shirt with that on the back!

I am so excited you can’t believe it. Heck, I CAN’T BELIEVE IT!

Hope you can go to your own signing, and the list is available at Stephenie’s Website, in the Calender section.

I finished Eclipse. (yes a while ago, but summer is busy, what can I say!) Wowsers was it good!

I had ONE MAJOR PROBLEM with it though… I bet a LOT of you shared my dilemma……

I could not IMMEDIATELY sit down and read book 4… other than that, I loved it. Good news Breaking Dawn is scheduled to be released in the fall of 2008, so hope is near… not TERRIBLY near, but near enough.

ABC has a video interview with Stephenie, linked here, and yeah, its a fun interview. :). My favorite line in the interview,

“There are so many heroes out there who have super magical powers and they can do these great things. I identify more easily with someone who is just human. And I think that’s a lot of [Bella's] appeal. All of us can understand being just human.”

Eclipse was wonderful, and don’t forget that Stephenie is touring across the country, and I will be at the Mass signing.

Every now and again here at Book Embargo, I like to spice it up. This time, we are going with music. The Blow is a band that my boyfriend turned me onto. One of their more popular songs, “Pile of Gold,” had a small contest that went along with it. Khaela asked for people to make their own music videos and then she would compile them so that at concerts, when she played the song, all the music videos would play behind her. Here is her video explaining her request.

The goal was to have 54 videos entered but alas, no. Regardless, my Justin compiled them for her and posted it on his own website, and posted it on Youtube. I give you the video.

The other exciting news, and why I personally am blogging this is that Justin and I went down to North Hampton Massachusettes (nicest little town with TONS of music shops and venues) to see The Blow perform. Keep in mind that “The Blow” is just Khaela singing and usually Jona running the computer. So anyways, the concert was incredibly amazing. Previous to the concert, I had not liked her songs listening to them on the computer. I have officially decided that The Blow and Khaela are my Favorite Live Band. She is HILARIOUS. She does mini-stand-up inbetween her songs. Talking about Kareoke and dreams of the coworkers picking up chicks. It was great.

Here is Justin and Khaela at the end of the concert. He has his new “Blow” shirt over his shoulder. In thanks for doing the video for her, she gave him the new cd. One of the FEW that he does not already have.

So long story short. Visit North Hampton Mass if you can, DEFINITELY go see The Blow, and buy all their albums.
