This week, I attended Beth Revis' release party for A Million Suns. Stephanie Perkins and Carrie Ryan were there along with Beth, and the ensuing discussion was quite entertaining! In my typical antisocial fashion, I did not snap pictures of the event or talk much myself to the authors, but I did pick up a copy of Revis' newest book and get it and The Forest of Hands and Teeth signed.

I just finished reading this and should have a review posted by the end of the week. Happily, A Million Suns lived up to the excellence of Across the Universe - and broke my YA reading slump of the last month!
Enjoy A Million Suns and The Forest of Hands and Teeth, I'm dying to read both of these!
