Morning Coffee

Sommer, I just looked at your new blog post, and you have some pretty interesting books on there. I am going to have to check a few of them out!

Thanks! I'm pretty excited. I think it is interesting that all but one of the books I'm dying to read come out in March. Is March like the publishing sweet spot or something?

The one I'm most excited about is The Piper's Son by Melina Marchetta. It is a companion to the book Saving Francesca which I adored. They are both australian so some of the slang is lost on me, but still an amazing book. She wrote the book Jellicoe Road which won the 2009 Michael Printz award. She's amazing. Melina Marchetta is my hero.

Yea, that one did look good. It is now on my Amazon wishlist. I have never read anything by Melina Marchetta, but that will soon change. I'm so behind on YA books, but I plan to catch up this year.

That's awesome! Tell me what you end up reading. I love talking to other YA readers.

I will! There are a bunch that I recently bought, but I have to finish reading the books I'm reading now first before I start any of them--also the last 3 Harry Potter books.

Now that I've been reading YA, I'm wondering if my MS falls into that category. I don't think so though-- I don't know.
