September 2014 Wrap-Up

First things first! The Cybils nominations open at MIDINIGHT, pacific time. (Which is about 2 a.m. here. Is it bad that I’m hoping for a bout of insomnia?) Anyone is welcome to nominate their favorite book in our categories…. in fact the more nominations, the better! (I’m not a Round 1 judge this year, so I can say that.) You have your list ready?? I do! (And back-ups for my back-ups, in case my favorite books are already nominated.) Not sure what to nominate? Check out the category descriptions. I’m sure you’ve read one book that was published this past year that you’d like to nominate.

As for my reading this month, my favorite, hands down (which is eligible for nomination, by the way), no questions:

The Whispering Skull

SO good. Soooo good.

And the rest (all the kids stuff is eligible to nominate. I’m being nice and sharing.)….
