Just a note to say that I’ll be at the Association of Writers and Writing Program’s Annual Conference in Boston next week. (And I’m super excited because, while AWP isn’t huge for genre or YA authors, Jane Yolen will be there, too. I love her writing, and am frankly still basking from the moment when, during her trip to Tulsa to hand out the Tulsa library’s young people’s writing awards when I... read more »

The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater
With characters that are so well-defined that they feel real and unique within a few sentences and a story reminiscent of Susan Cooper, THE RAVEN BOYS is a true winner.
Eilis O'Neal rated a book 4 of 5 stars
The Psychology of Joss Whedon by Joy Davidson
A great book for lovers of Buffy, Angel, and Firefly. Interesting, insightful essays on the show (and no you don't need a psychology degree to get them!).
Eilis O'Neal rated a book 4 of 5 stars
Ship Breaker by Paolo Bacigalupi
Fast-paced and keenly observed, SHIP BREAKER is a great read. But be prepared for household chores and homework to go undone, because you won't want to stop until it's over!
Eilis O'Neal rated a book 4 of 5 stars
Eon by Alison Goodman
A richly detailed world, a unique magic system, and a strong and stubborn heroine. I thoroughly enjoyed EON: DRAGONEYE REBORN, and can't wait to get my hands on the sequel.

“He watches you, Sinda. Like you're his best treasure, only he can't think of a way to slip you into is pocket. Hasn't he-of-the-throwing-daggers been brave enough to mention it?”
Eilis O'Neal, The False Princess

“If I thought being kissed by Tyr had been what kissing was all about, I had been wrong. This kiss trampled Tyr's kiss, threw it to the ground, and danced on its grave.”
Eilis O'Neal, The False Princess
