A galley of siobhan_says_so's latest book just came in the newest Scholastic Box O' Love. I think I will skip watching TV tonight (except for SPN, of course) and read it.

Also included was a book called The School For Dangerous Girls. I must read at least the first hundred pages of that one.

cedarlibrarian: Oooh, the Twilight essay collection came in today's mail.
dettiot: [snort] Why are you oooing over that?
cedarlibrarian: Because I'm hoping the essays will be witty and fun* and take the book to task for being crappy.
dettiot: Ummm . . . and what color is the sky in your world?
cedarlibrarian: SPARKLY

*As much as I disliked the Twilight books, this essay collection looks really cool. Any book that raises the question of whether Edward Cullen is a good boyfriend or a sociopath (I vote sociopath) cannot be all bad. I recognize a lot of the contributors as authors whose works I enjoy, like Robin Brande and Janette Rallison. So the Twilight books? Disastrous. This essay collection? Unlikely to be so.
