This Week at Book Riot

 

Over on Book Riot this week…

I got to interview SE Hinton about The Outsiders turning 50 years old and about how much the book has influenced YA literature (and whether or not the book launched the category).

 

A whole host of awesome typewriter-themed bookish things.

 

15 ways you can become a literary advocate, no matter your budget is in terms of money or time.

 

For this week’s “3 on a YA theme,” it’s all about girls who create graffiti/street art. Bonus: some of my photography of great street art I’ve taken this year.

 

 

Around the web…

 

Here We Are  was reviewed in The Washington Post (!!). The print edition hits on Sunday.

 

I got to do a really great in-person interview with Olyvia at A Midsummer Night’s Read before my event in Austin earlier this month, and it’s up.

 

Here We Are is included in a nice round-up at Bust of must-read new books.
