Pat Conroy greets a fan at Saturday's Savannah Book Festival.

More than 9,000 people came to the fifth annual Savannah Book Festival on Saturday, organizers say.

Long lines formed at the festival's book signing tent Saturday afternoon, as readers waited for a chance to meet headliners Pat Conroy and Brad Thor.

"I had a blast," Conroy said of the festival, adding that his favorite part of the festival was the chance "to sign beside one of my best friends through my life (fellow author) John Warley."
