• My Heroes

    @atticusfin wrote a post and asked everyone who their hero was. I thought I would answer her question in a post.I've sat here and thought about this. I don't have one hero, I have many.

  • Top 100 Young Adult Books

    A few weeks ago there was a website having people vote for their favorite Young Adult books. I voted and I think last week they finally put up the top 100 Young Adult books. I believe the list went over 200 and they made up it of the most voted for books. Here is the link to the full 100 Young Adult…
  • Powwows, Book Covers And Other Things

    For me, there will be a lot going on in September. Diana Wynne Jones' new book will be released in America. I don't know if this will be her last, or not. From what I've read, she has many books that she had started writing, but there was one she was close to finishing before she died. It is possibl…
  • I Wish I Could Have Been There

    Last month in Bristol, England there was a conference for Diana Wynne Jones. Really, it was a celebration of her life and anyone who could make it was welcome.

  • What I Got In The Mail

    Just thought I'd share what came in the mail yesterday: I got my copy of Earwig and the Witch by Diana Wynne Jones! I've had this pre-ordered for a little over a month. It was released January 31st in America, but the UK got it last year, during the summer I believe. I've known about this book since…
  • Day 29: Book You’re Currently Reading

    It's day 29 and I'm supposed to write about a book I'm currently reading. I'm currently reading two books.I'm reading this because a group I'm in on Goodreads has Diana Wynne Jones as their featured author this month. This book contains three short stories. I read the first short story already, call…
  • Day 19: Upcoming Releases

    It's day 19 and I was actually supposed to write about a book that turns me on. And I decided not to write about it because there are no books that turn me on. I've only read one or two romance books and I don't erotica. So I replace today's writing of books that turn you on with upcoming releases o…
