In the Heart of Kansas...It's Almost Heartland Time!
One of my favorite times of the year is when the list of possible Heartland Award nominees is released. I received the list of possibles (27 on this year's list) in May and immediately started reading. Of course, some of the authors have been on previous lists but there are some new names.
The ones I've read so far include:
Wintergirls (Laurie Halse Anderson)
Identical (Ellen Hopkins)
By the Time You Read This, I'll Be Dead (Julie Anne Peters)
I'm currently reading:
All Unquiet Things (Brian Katcher)
Other summer purchases to read include:
The Carrie Diaries (Candace Bushnell)
Paper Towns (John Green)
I will be making another trip to Borders to see what other books on the list they have added to their shelves.

Tune in Tuesday...June 22...Here Comes Sizzling Sixteen
Can hardly wait until Tuesday! I will be at Borders early on Tuesday to pick up the newest Stephanie Plum book by Janet Evanovich. Sizzling Sixteen better be everything I've waited a year for. I sure hope Ranger has a BIG part in this newest book! And, I can hardly wait to see what trouble follows Grandma and Lula. Here's hoping number 16 will be Cluck-in-a-Bucket funny!

Reading Raves - Laurie Stolarz
Looking for a new series of books to read? If so, check out the Touch series by Laurie Stolarz. I recently finished the second book in the series Deadly Little Lies and can't wait for the third book in the series to be released. Check out her webpage http://www.lauriestolarz.com/ for upcoming novels.
Check out the YouTube book trailer for the first book in the series, Deadly Little Secret.
