Not Your Mother's Book Club™ (NYMBC) will host the Debutante Ball, featuring three (3!) awesome new YA authors:

Post event thoughts:
Another great evening of debut author readings!
Again pictures of the event can be spotted at Martha's site. Cheryl got some good pics too.
Another beautiful and warm evening in San Francisco. Some people dressed in fancy garb for the occasion. Colorful tiara's were given away along with sweet treats. Jennifer from Not Your Mother's Book Club started the event and introduced the authors. The three authors sat up front and gave intros, read from their books, answered a few questions from the audience and then signed books.
Along with the author signing session, purchasers of any or all of the three books were treated to a free book giveaway, The Chosen One by Carol Lynch Williams!
My thoughts on the individual authors readings are here:

Thanks for a fun night Jennifer!
