While you lucky ducklings are enjoying the grayer pastures of Seattle, I'll be at home this weekend, trying to cast my eyes upon as many celebrated YA titles as I can. Code Name Verity, Brides of Rollrock Island, Seraphina, Beneath a Meth Moon, I'm coming for you.
If you see Sam out there, tell him hello!
I'll be on Twitter Monday morning, squeeing along to the Youth Media Awards.

Will that be your first reads of those books? You have a treat in store for you then! I love both Code Name Verity and Seraphina.
ReplyDeleteIt is! I haven't had time to read any YA yet this year.
ReplyDeleteDid you read "Brides of Rollrock" yet? Holy crap that book ripped my heart out, chewed it up, and spat it back in my face. Have you read "Tender Morsels" by her? It's one of my fave books of all time, despite making me cry, and not just one-glistening-tear-running-down-my-cheek cry, but heaving-and-sobbing-and-snotting-and-weazing cry. I'll stop fangirling out about Margo Lanagan now. Enjoy your YA binge :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't! I have Brides of Rollrock checked out - we'll see if I get to it. Haven't read Tender Morsels either, but it looked crazy in a good way.
