    As I mentioned at Book Smugglers, it's always fun to see you participate in Smugglivus. In fact, that's how I learned about The Book Smugglers in the first place--through your blog. Great choices there! I read Nightshifted and For Darkness Shows the Stars, because you told me about her.

      Thanks, Lin! And I'm happy to have directed you there. They've been entertaining and recommending good stuff for quite awhile now. Hope you enjoyed both of those!

    Such a great list, Angie. I was very tempted to start ordering some of the books on that list! I really must read Hunting Ground and Fair Game before Frost Burned comes out. And I really miss Deanna Raybourn!

      Lol. I aim to tempt.

      Fair Game is such a payoff, I think, for that series. Kudos to her.

Linger by Maggie Stiefvater, Review + Giveaway!

It seems a long time ago now that I first read Shiver -- the first book in the Wolves of Mercy Falls trilogy. But looking back I started it on the plane ride to BEA and finished it there in the conference center, fingers gripping the cover tightly, while sitting on the floor in one of the many autograph lines. And now it's May again and BEA is right around the corner and I emerge from my recent and nasty reading slump stupor to find a copy of Linger sitting in my mailbox like a glove thrown down in the dirt. "I will be the one to pull you out," it whispers to me slyly. "Just open me up and take a sip. I promise--one sip is all it will take." And I look at it with fear and longing written all over my face. "You promise?" I ask  intently.

Interview with Diana Peterfreund + Rampant Giveaway!

Ever since I fell in love with Diana Peterfreund 's Secret Society Girl series last year, I've been hoping I'd get the chance to interview her here. Tomorrow marks the release of her new novel, Rampant , and let me tell you that you have not read a book like this before. You can read my review here , but all you really need to know is that it's a story about killer unicorns and the young women who hunt them. You want to read it now, don't you? Oh, yeah, and it's YA and the first in a series! To celebrate the release, Diana graciously answered a few of my most burning questions. As she is always a delight, I know you'll enjoy them as much as I did. First things first: When did the idea for Rampant first hit you and what (if anything) did you know right off the bat? In early 2005, just after selling Secret Society Girl , I had this dream of being chased by a very dangerous unicorn. I woke up and went to go look it up to see if I could figure out the meanin...
