Good morning all, and it definitely is morning. The sun isn't even up! I am never awake before 6! Just wanted to share a few things with you. Yesterday, as you know I went to TLA. It was so much fun! I met a few authors:

  • Cassandra Clare (author of the Mortal Instruments series!!!!!) and she was sooo cool, and remembered me from when we had talked on twitter a week ago!
  • Jacqueline Kelly who gave out not only free copies of her book, but also pens and coffee cups!
  • Aaaand Joan Bauer! Author of Hope was Here, Best Foot Forward, Peeled and a lot of other amazing books. And she was the most gracious celebrity I've ever met! She shook my hand and chatted with me about my best friend (who she dedicated my book to--presents!)
And today offers even more awesomeness, because group of you all are coming with me and MEG CABOT WILL BE THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Which book should I take to have signed???

DFTBA,
Sti

Per their blog*: As a high school librarian, offering reading recommendations for students is one of my favorite parts of my job. These lists are for parents, library workers, and teen readers... I created these lists through an alchemy involving age of the protagonists, themes, genre, tone, complexity, reader skill/comfortability level, events and topics a student will likely encounter in their studies during the school year, and books they are unlikely to read for school. I also tried to pick materials that published in the last few years or will be published by June 2021. Preference to #ownvoices and marginalized authors. Below you'll find links to their lists broken up by grade level. Whether you know an avid reader who always...
