I had the very fortunate privilege of attending the Simon Teen Blogger Preview during BEA 2013. At the event, authors were interviewed on stage, but were actually asked interesting questions. We got cocktails and learned about awesome new books. At that event, one author left more of an impression on me and had me immediately […]
Don’t Turn Around | Michelle Gagnon | Book Review
July 18, 2013
Sometimes I have totally weird dilemmas, that normal people would be all, yo that is absolutely not a dilemma Ms. First World Problems.
