    Incredible reads. The Wake trilogy literally sucked me in! Can't wait for her newest book.

    I just love her writing style. The shorter sentences just keep the story rolling along in a way that makes me unable to put it down!

    I've only ever read the Wake trilogy. But I love her books because they depict real life situations that people can relate to.

    I haven't ever read any of her books, but I've heard lots of great things about them and I have had them on my wish list! Thanks for the chance to win.

    I've not yet read anything by her but Cryer's Cross is on my TBR. I would love the chance to check her out!

    Lisa McMann's writing made me want to read. I even wrote a paper about how her books inspired me to read more for my college English Comprehension class. If I could personally thank her for what she has done for me, I would love to do that. Her Wake series really opened my eyes to the wonderful world of literature and what is out there for minds like my own to discover and read. Her books are like watching a movie in my head, and that is probably the one thing that I love the most about her books. I simply CANNOT wait for this book to be released so I can go buy it 🙂 And, to top it off, I have to travel to the nearest bookstore about 45 minutes away from me because all the darn bookstores near me are closed 🙁

      I think you just did thank her – I'm sure she'll come read these comments 🙂

    I really enjoyed her other books! Cannot wait to get my hands on this one 🙂

School's out for summer & the weather was perfect School's out for summer & the weather was perfect for reading outside this weekend. Couldn't resist choosing this YA romantasy touted as "Taylor Swift's 'Vigilante Sh*t' meets The Gilded Age" for my first summer break read!

Finding moments of joy where I can. There are two Finding moments of joy where I can. There are two days left of this school year. A year that started with sitting in the corner crying due to the overwhelm of the massive task ahead of us to get ready for the first day upon walking in & seeing the state of the library after summer renovation work. A year of ups & downs & all arounds. All the way to today when we had the giddy joy of our brand new booktrucks being delivered. They are pretty & sturdy & glide smoothly & elevate the look of the whole library while making our lives easier. Farewell old, dented, wobbly, rusty, beige carts. IYKYK. Bahama blue, turquoise, teal, sundrop, & calming lavender are taking over. Thank you for the colorful options, helpful customer service, & quick response shipping before school ends @demcoinc!!

Love this reminder of the power of children's lite Love this reminder of the power of children's literature from the introduction in Show & Tell: Exploring the Fine Art of Children’s Book Illustration! Reading it this weekend to continue building background knowledge for my work on the Caldecott Committee this year. 
"In this regard, we truly suffer from an embarrassment of riches. Children's books have never looked better or been more
important. They are one of the few quiet places left where a child can go to be alone, and to travel worlds past, present, and future. They are often the first place children discover poetry and art, honor and loyalty, right and wrong, sadness and hope. And it is there between the pages that children discover the power of their own imaginations. They are indeed a dress rehearsal for life."
