March Madness Draws to a Close

Yes it is almost the end of April and we're just finishing the YA March Madness. Because that's how we roll. 

So...the winner of the 2014 YA March Madness is..... 

I know, I know, it's all a big shock. That this book, an underdog really, came out on top of all the other worthy contenders was a big surprise to all of us here at the library.* 

Raven Boys  by Maggie Stiefvater was our second place. If you haven't read it yet, you really, really should! It might not have a movie deal, but Maggie Stiefvater is an excellent writer and a really weird human being and the book is so good. When you've read it, come and tell me which character is your favorite. You know, if you can choose just one. I know I can't.

 

And now, have we talked about The Fault in Our Stars movie yet? Because I'm pretty sure it's going to break all of us. If you want to see the new trailer you'll have to go watch a movie about a wife and two mistresses getting revenge on a cheating husband, which just does not sound like the expected demographic of TFiOS...Or am I just crazy?

Anyway, I think I should go to a matinee showing of this so I can sob as loudly as I need. But I guess everyone else will be just as upset, right?

Okay, okay (see what I did there?), see most of you this afternoon for some Sing Star! Yessss.

DFTBA,

Sti
