Just found out from Meg Cabot's blog that the sequel to Michelle Jaffe's much Loved Bad Kitty is going to be out tomorrow, July 1!
Kitty Kitty will be on shelves tomorrow, and if you haven't read the first one, I highly recommend getting it from the library. I used to have a copy, but I sent it to my little sisters. (my sincere apologies)
Enjoy!

The Naming & The Riddle - Alison Croggon
Hey Ladies,
I've found a couple books that I've really enjoyed so far. Good solid fantasy that is well written and not annoying. Not much romance in there though (Sorry!).
Alison Croggon is an author from Australia. I'm halfway through The Riddle (2nd book) and I like the character development so far.
Hope you like them!

We can purchase tickets online and the concert / booksigning is on Thursday August 8th at 8:00pm. Are we going?

Breaking Dawn
In order to get a cover photo of Breaking Dawn, I typed the words into Google. Now, I know what the cover looks like, so I was surprised to see this page pop up. I don't know if they are discarded cover ideas or if they are all just fan art, but good grief, Blood Spatter? ew, people.
thank you, Amazon.com, for always having the real thing:
now here's my theory, about the cover. Because it obviously means something. I mean, hello. Chess?
okay. So I told Craig about the cover and he said that in chess the pawn can become the queen. (he said this in that "of course you know this, right?" way, which, of course I did NOT) I mean hello! Chess? honestly.
anyway. my theory is this: we have gotten rid of our "bad guys" from books 1-3 (those naughty vampires) but were introduced to an ever-more-scary-and-sinister group in book 2, The Volturi. I think it is likely/natural that they will be the bad guys of #4.
And that they will want Bella for their pawn.
Have you guessed yet what it is that I am thinking? I bet you have, you smart and awesome people. I am thinking that Bella will end up being, "da dum!", the Queen of the Vampires.
now, i realize that so far SM's work tends toward the human - meaning that from the way she has written so far, one does not tend to expect her to go all vampy and especially queen-of-the-vampy allofasudden. However, I really don't see another possible "happy" ending for all of you Edward fans. Also, I love a good queen-vamp novel (that is also clean) (which means i haven't actually read... any... yet... *sigh*) so I'm hoping that my guess is right.

July book club
So, I guess since we've all had a turn hosting book club, it's my turn again. Should we do The Host? Does anybody have any suggestions? I'm going to have to think about what to do.
So, stay tuned. . .
