I love me an advanced readers copy to experience titles before they are officially released. I read several then went to ALA and met the authors. It was soooo cool! #TLSkyChat

I really loved Dream On (Shannon Hale)
What really stood out was the way the illustrations showed not just what Cassie said but what she thought. That self-talk? So real. & the way it shows that some of those thoughts aren’t always helpful? Brilliant.

A4: Hmm...that is a tough one. It really depends on what I am looking for. I find the awards and honor books in general to be such an interesting look at what is going on around the country and world. I especially enjoy taking a look at the state awards sometimes more than national. #TLSkyChat

So subjective. I know when we select Battle of the Books books each year there is a lot of discussion and a whole selection criteria. #TLSkyChat
A3: Yes, I can't imagine how difficult the job must be. Even in our local SCBWI book discussion groups, the opinions vary widely. So huge thanks to those who volunteer their time!
