John Grisham

BookExpo America saved the best for last, opening their third, and final, day with signings featuring major stars from print and film.  Autograph collectors had the opportunity to meet the likes of John Grishan, James Patterson and Nathan Lane and all before 10:30 am. 

Theres's still plenty of stars for "The Bookish" to meet today, including Christie Brinkley, Bobby Flay, R.L. Stine, Marc Brown, Mindy Kaling, David Baldacci and Gloria Steinam.

Star Wars fans will be happy to note Tom Angleberger, author of "Origami Yoda" will be signing free copis of "McToad Mows Tiny Island" from 1:30-2:30 this afternoon.

Today marks the end of BookExpo America, but the party isn't done yet.  BookCon, the consumer portion of the show, kicks off Saturday morning and goes through the weekend.  You can order your tickets HERE.

BookCon has two Star Wars panels lined up on Saturday.  From 12:30-1:30 they will feature "Marvel Presents Star Wars" which is a run down of what's in the works from the Star Wars line of comics, including Darth Vader, Princess Leia, Lando Carlrissian and Kanan: Last Padawan.

"In 1977, a few months before the release of Star Wars, Marvel Comics debuted their very own adaptation of the film – which kicked off nearly a decade of stories set in a galaxy far far away, told in the Mighty Marvel Manner! Now, nearly 40 years after that historic debut, Star Wars has finally returned to Marvel with an acclaimed line of all-new comics and graphic novels! Marvel Editor Jordan White is joined by the superstar writer of the newly-announced series Star Wars: Lando, Charles Soule, to discuss all things Star Wars at Marvel!"

From 2:00-3:00 it's "New Adaptations of the Star Wars Saga."  The description reads "Hear from these bestselling children's book authors how the classic Star Wars saga comes to life through adaptations: Tony DiTerlizzi (The Adventures of Luke Skywalker, Jedi Knight), Alexandra Bracken (Star Wars: A New Hope), Adam Gidwitz (Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back), and Tom Angleberger (Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.)"

There are two Star Wars signings happening Saturday.  Tony DiTerlizzi kicks things off at 3:30, followed by Adam Gidwitz, Alexandra Bracken and Tom Angleberger.
