Reading Writing Wormer

Hourglass was a wonderful book. Myra took the old concept of time travel and worked it into the book where it was not cliche or stereotypical in a novel. The balance of romance to the fantasy part of it was perfect. Characters were really perfect for the story and had such a personality they could be real. Emerson, especially, was my favourite.

And One Other Random Reason Why HOURGLASS Was Awesome:

NEED by Carrie Jones                              LIPS TOUCH: THREE TIMES by Laini Taylor

The wonderful author of WITHER, Lauren DeStefano, is doing a drawing for a signed bookplate!

She has great suggestions on what to use it for...
1.) Stick it in your book
2.) Use its adhesive to repair a carburetor
3.) Rub your face against it like a cat
4.) Plant it to grow a bacon tree (disclaimer: this bookplate will not grow bacon)
5.) Fasten two chipmunks together and enter them in a three-legged race
6.) Dress it like Clark Gable to keep grandma company
