You do meet other bloggers as the years go on, but I was ok alone. Everyone usually goes his/her separate ways. :)
Maybe we can get together to eat something in the evenings? I'm just worried that I'll begin to feel lonely after a long day at BEA :)

Just strike up a conversation with someone in line. :)

Thanks! I'm really excited to be going this year!
I'm wanting a riding buddy of sort, haha. For the rides to BEA in the morning. If anyone would be interested. I'm staying over on Halsted St. and have been trying to find someone to split cab/uber fare with. I don't have a smart phone so I can't do uber alone.
We could meet at a cafe on the street, if anyone else is staying in the same area and was interested.
I've been pretty much going alone since I started going a few years back. I do meet a few people while in line & last year I buddied up with a really cool girl and we were able to get quite a few books together with each other's help. I'm going to be staying on the southside of Chicago in Airbnb. But I'm scared that I'm going to get lonely. And shy so it's hard for me to be like hey peoples let me join your already formed group of friends. Yeah. LOL I would love to find a like minded spirit to hang with on Sunday. I've been dying to go to Navy pier and ride the huge Ferris wheel at night. Maybe go to Willis Tower and do the "glass balcony" 103 stories above this city .

This will be my first time at BEA this year and I'm still looking for someone who loves YA and is flying solo and would like to form a team! Let me know if you want more info so we can get to know each other!
Cheers!
