Author(s) and Guest(s)
Sarah Dessen
In Sarah Dessen's young-adult novel, What Happened to Goodbye (Viking Juvenile, $19.99), McLean discovers a desire to stay in one place and just be herself, whoever that is. Perhaps Dave, the guy next door, can help her find out. Dressen has published nine previous novels, including the New York Times bestsellers Along for the Ride, Lock and Key, Just Listen and This Lullaby.
Colleen Houck
Tiger's Vogage (Sterling, $17.95), is the third book in the young-adult fantasy series, Tiger's Curse. With the head-to-head battle against the villainous Lokesh behind her, Kelsey confronts a new heartbreak: in the wake of his traumatic experience, her beloved Ren no longer remembers who she is. "Twilight fans will appreciate the supernatural, star-crossed romance.” --School Library Journal
Nancy Holder
Damned (The Crusade Series)(Simon& Schuster, $16.99), the supernatural fiction novel by Nancy Holder and Debbie Viguie, concerns itself with The Cursed Ones, vampires, who have made their presence known to mankind. They promised to help bring peace to the world, but instead declared war on humanity. Most people are too afraid or otherwise unwilling to take a stand. Others, like eighteen-year-old Jenn Leitner, train to become vampire fighters and risk everything in the process. Holder has received four Bram Stoker awards and has 78 books to her credit. Viguie's books include the Wicked series and the novel Spirited.
