Jump the Cracks by Stacy DeKeyser
Hidden in Havana by Jose Latour
The Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary E. Pearson
Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher
Lost It by Kristen Tracy
The one I really want to read, though, is:
Sweethearts by Sara Zarr. Unfortunately, though, this is one my local library doesn’t have, and it’s still too new — there aren’t any reviews on Amazon, yet, so the library won’t order a copy (it has to be reviewed by Library Journal, or Publishers Weekly for the library to consider it).
Don’t get me wrong… I want to read all of these! But, “Sweethearts” sounds really good!
Anyway. I also first heard about “Beyond Me: Living a You-First Life in a Me-First World” by Kathi Macias — I’ve been asked to read & review this book for the author, and then host the author in a Blog Tour in August!
So, you’ll be able to read my review soon!

I just ordered a book last night, The Greatest Thing Since Slice Bread by Don Robertson. I heard about it on NPR – one of Nancy Pearl’s picks.

The Assist – Neil Swidey
Non-fiction account of a high school basketball coach mentoring his inner-city athletes during and after their time on his team. More about human bonds and struggles than sports. Awesome read.
