new book alert!

ZOMG just found out one of my favorite authors has a new book coming out in October!!! :D

Glory O'Brien's History of the Future by A.S. King





I may need to do a post later about the awesome that is A.S. King. Her books are just some of the most beautiful things I have ever read. They are true Young Adult novels, with older teens dealing with real issues, but not in a "special edition" kind of way - it feels real (which is funny since each book has this tiny little element of magic to it...little twists of fate or alternate realities or different ways of thinking that help each character cope with their life - it's hard to explain really).

subtext...ha!

We go through all the new books that arrive at our branch to make sure everything is in the catalog correctly. It helps us stay up to date with new titles, but when it's that time of the month and ALL the romance series arrive, we mostly sit there and giggle like idiots about all the cowboy shiekh's baby mama books. This title was the one that made me go into a fit on the desk today. I mean, SERIOUSLY?!?



I am so ready to go home, it's been a long day!!! At least I have tomorrow off. I love my Fridays off, even if I mostly spend them in my pajamas. :)
