Next? I will work up the courage to read Libba Bray's THE DIVINERS (Little, Brown/Today!). Did you watch the book trailer? SCARY! (In a good way...) I'm not usually drawn to scary books, but her YA novels GOING BOVINE and BEAUTY QUEENS are two of my favorites of all time. Both were so surprising, so unlike anything else... I'm very curious to see what she does with this new book.
What are you reading? What's your teen reading? (If you have one handy, ask him/her!) I'm curious!
Hi Sharon! I just finished DRAMARAMA by E. Lockheart, which was so much fun for this former drama camp geek/theatre major - highly recommended for anyone who likes (or liked) Glee. Now I'm reading an ARC of Marissa Burt's STORY'S END. And I can't for REQUIEM by Lauren Oliver ... but I have to wait a few months.
