Dawn, Gigi, Christy and Tiah are setting off to downtown Denver this weekend for the Colorado Teen Literature Conference. It is going to be a smashing good time with Rachel Vail and Pete Hautman as guest speakers. We are dragging along some of the kids that attend our schools and having them help us out during our presentation, so come and see a whole new round of fresh, exciting and edgy titles from authors and publishers near and far. You can register at the door! http://www.coteenlitconf.org/
We hope you’ll visit this site regulary for continued updates regarding new books and upcoming authors! Feel free to add your own recommendations to each of the tabs!
This blog and its information would not have been possible without the wonderful response given to our call requesting information on newly published novels, books with an edge, and books by upcoming authors. THANK YOU to all of the authors and publishers who responded and donated the books currently listed on this blog. Please take time to visit their websites and contact them regarding these and other books.
We are Christy, Dawn, Gigi, and Tiah — all middle school teacher librarians. More importantly, we are completely, totally and unbelievably CONSUMED BY BOOKS!
We have created this blog to keep our students and fellow teacher librarians up to date and in the know when it comes to the books that are written for our middle school and high school readers. We also want to hear from you. What are you reading, what authors do you adore, what makes a character great…what do you wish your librarian kept on the shelves for you to read? Tell us…we want to know.
