May TBR

Oh man! We’re in the home stretch of the school year! This is the time of year I start failing at reading/blogging! Plus I’ll be at the RT convention for about a week and I never get any reading done there. Still, I have a lot I want to get to in May so hopefully this will keep me motivated!! Also, I finished my Sarah Dessen re-read so that cuts out a few books a month. I had such a great time doing it! Look for Saint Anything out on May 5th!!!

    Sarah Dessen is going to be at the Rochester Teen Book Festival in a few weeks, and I’m going, so I really need to read some of her books. I did read Dreamland when I was in library school, but nothing since. Where should I start, do you think?

    Have fun at RT!

      I always start my students with The Truth About Forever. It’s one of my favorites. My other favs are Just Listen, Along for the Ride, Lock and Key, and This Lullaby… but they’re all so good!!!!
