GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) -- Hundreds of people are lining up at a Michigan bookstore for a chance to meet Sarah Palin as she kicks off her national book tour.

Some camped out overnight to be among the first to get wristbands Wednesday morning from the Barnes and Noble bookstore in Grand Rapids.

The orange bands will give them an opportunity to get the former Alaskan governor and 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate to sign their copies of her new book, "Going Rogue," at a three-hour book-signing event in the evening.

The book was released Tuesday but has topped best-seller lists for weeks.

Barnes and Noble spokeswoman Maddie Hjulstrom says for security reasons, she can't say how many people are expected at the book signing.
