I think time travel books are really starting to grow on me, in that I actively seek them out. Mira’s Diary: Lost In Paris by Marissa Moss first caught my attention at BEA 2012 when I went to the Young Adult And Middle Grade Author Buzz panel. I thought the concept seemed cool because I like reading […]

October 2, 2012
Friends, in between each bloggiesta task this weekend, I had the pleasure of reading The Girl Who Fell Beneath Fairyland And Led The Revels There by Catherynne M. Valente.
