Faire and Con Report: Collingswood Book Festival
Capping off a busy week, Chris and I traveled to the much-anticipated Collingswood Book Festival. My favorite part about this festival is always the Town Book. As usual, it was something I probably wouldn’t have picked up on my own. This year’s selection was The Stolen Child, by Keith Donohue, a novel that delves into the concept of identity while the narrative follows a band a changling fairies and one of their own who has taken the place of another. The festival hosted a book discussion last Tuesday and the author was there on Saturday to give a presentation and autographs.
We ended up bringing home more books than we have space for, as usual.
