wurd nurd

I'm a cubicle-monkey, but my heart lays with the those special transports called books. If you have recommendations, I'd love to hear them (but, please, I keep my shelves up to date; it's annoying to get a rec for a book I've clearly read/rated/reviewed).

    I'm jealous...I'd love to go to BEA! One of my fave authors (Christopher Moore) is going to be there. But alas, I'm a poor Canadian who doesn't directly work in publishing, so I'm not even positive I'll make it to BEC this year. It was better than Christmas last year! I'm still wading through all the ARCs, pulling them out as I remember them.

    Hi wurd nurd! I found you at Bookmarks too. I checked your shelves and saw that you've read a lot of authors that I'm interested in trying out. What did you think of Kazuo Ishiguro's "The Unconsoled"? Apparently it's the weirdest one of his novels but I like weird and was not overly impressed with "Never Let Me Go".

    Ah, the grad school budget. Totally understood! We're all for libraries, and that may be the best route for you...

    ]Do you folks publish YA or tween lit?
    Not in particular, but we have a few titles that may be of interest: Rain Village by Carolyn Turgeon and HICK by Andrea Portes. HICK was recently named among the best Adult Books for High School Students by the School Library Journal: http://www.schoollibraryjournal.com/article/CA6504068.html

    I read your comment on Bookmars, where you wrote 7 things about being a reader, you mentioned you are addicted to shelfari, I know the feeling... I too have spent a night adding books and posting reviews. I enjoyed reading your post and I've got "The Constant Princess" in my TBR pile, let me know what you think of it.
