Reviews and blog posts that have me adding to my to-read list:
~ Empty by Susan Weyn, reviewed by Tina at Bookshipper.
~ The Kneebone Boy by Ellen Potter, reviewed by Jennifer at 5 Minutes for Books.
~ Strange Happenings by Avi, reviewed by Bookfool.
~ Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver, reviewed by Michelle at GalleySmith (I think I’ve already added this to my to-read list, come to think of it. I lose track easily.)
~ Wait Till Helen Comes by Mary Downing Hahn, reviewed by Jenn at Jenn’s Bookshelves.
~ Jenn also got me with her review of Rot & Ruin by Jonathan Maberry.
~ Trance by Linda Gerber, reviewed by Amy at Amy Reads.
~ Russian Winter by Daphne Kalotay, reviewed by Laura at I’m Booking It.
Book to movie news:
~ Cassandra Clare’s City of Bones, the first book in her Mortal Instruments series, is being developed into a film.
Other bookish links:
~ Jen from Devourer of Books has a guest post up at The Debutante Ball: The Worst Advice for Working With Book Bloggers.
~ TJ at Dreams and Speculation is hosting a book club next year called The Women of Science Fiction. During 2011, a different book will be read each month, with discussion at the end of the month. I don’t know if I’ll be able to do every book, but Connie Willis’s Doomsday Book is the pick for April, so I’ll be joining in on that one at least.
Yay! I hope you enjoy WAIT TIL HELEN COMES & ROT & RUIN. Two great reads, perfect for this time of year!

Jenn – I love a good spooky story – as long as it’s not tooooo scary.

Avis – I’m excited about the book club.
Me too, obviously! Glad to hear you’re going to be part of it too — it seems more fun if some of the other participants are people I know!
