Brisingr by Christopher Paolini Midnight Release Party Photos

I know not too many pictures,

but I will not post the pictures of other customers.

I do not have permission to.

These are of employees and friends

that came to the midnight release party

we had at the bookstore I work at.

The photos were a group effort using my camera.

Beth and Michael.

Both are friends and Michael is coming back this Christmas to help us out. One less thing and person we have to worry about. He is also an artist. Beth has a few birds and has worked in a few different fields.

Ashley

(or Miss Ashley as I have taken to calling her for some reason)

eating strawberry Pocky.

She is also a friend and colleague.

I blew up the balloons (like anyone cares---lol).

My friend and colleague Lori baked cookies.

Ashley added the Pocky and other merchandise to the table

and bought Pocky to hand out as samples (and to eat herself).

These pictures were taken after the bookstore was closed

and so did not violate the strict street date.

I like the color choice for the third book.

Rumor has it there will be a fourth;

since it is now called the Inheritance Cycle

instead of the Inheritance Trilogy.

I still have yet to personally read the books.

I know one of these days I will read them

if I ever get through the stack of books I have piling up around the house.

Too many books and not enough time.
