So I'm in the middle of line edits for book 5 but I couldn't let another day go by without announcing some very exciting news—My Beating Teenage Heart is Amazon's Best Book of the month in Young Adult for October. See it on the right side of the page there? Wow. I'm so excited to see it up there with The Scorpio Races (Maggie Stiefvater), The Death Cure (James Dashner) and How to Save a Life (Sara Zarr). Pinch me!
I also want to point you in the direction of a wonderful review for the book up at Mabel's Fables. This stunning review by Shanti makes me very proud indeed. I noticed a fabulous review of Teri Hall's Away (the sequel to The Line) posted there too. Having loved The Line I'm really excited to read this sequel. Hopefully soon after those line edits are done! With a deadline two days after Canadian Thanksgiving (October 10th), though, I'm going to have to pause book-work on the weekend to bake a couple pear pies. My stomach is getting grumbly at the thought. I'll also be pausing to vote in Thursday's provincial election, of course, and I'm hoping a whole lot of Ontarians are as worried about what a Conservative hat trick would do to this place as I am.
