Hi everybody!
Do you know what today is? Hint: it’s a very exciting day…
That’s right, today the voting opens for the Teens’ Top 10 Award from the American Librarian Association (btw, this is a different award/poll from the one that’s been going on all summer in Canada, the Teen Reads Awards.)
If you’re a teen and you like to read then I highly recommend checking out this post that explains all about the voting. Then I would love it if you’d click on over to this site where you can exercise your right as a teen reader–and vote! (And you don’t even have to feel guilty if you don’t vote for Heist Society. I’d be happy if you’d all just vote…for someone.)
And, of course, while you’re there, you should totally take a long look at that list because there are some great books nominated this year and I’d wager that that will be a great place to discover new writers and series to tide you over for a while.
Finally, I’d like to thank everyone at the American Library Association and, specifically, the people behind the Teens’ Top 10 Award for nominating Heist Society and putting it with such fine company.
Thanks all, and happy reading (and voting!)
Ally

I love your GG series any time I read your books my life gets exciting! But what i dont get is why people want your book made into a movie. (dont get me wrong you book is sooooo movie worthy) All the time people say “The book was way better then the movie!” then they complain. So why ruin your books with a movie that is not worthy? OH and another point is if Cami is a true chameleon then wouldnt the “star” that played her be “average”, in my oppinion that is not the point of fame nomatter how crasy it gets. but just a thought.

oooh and p.s. i cant wait for gg5!!!!8D

August 28, 2010 at 9:58 pmAww, GG wasn’t there! 🙁
But, I can’t believe that an actual MANGA was there…sorry ally, I voted for the melancholy of haruhi suzimiya! The frist time a manga might actually get recognized…EEP! It’s also one of my favorite anime.
