April Author in the Spotlight Wrap-Up + Giveaway

April Author in the Spotlight Wrap-Up + Giveaway

April has come and gone by so fast.  I went on Spring Break to Arizona and the Grand Canyon, got super sick with a cold and allergies.  April was mega busy getting ready for History Day, the May Day parade, and the AP US history exam.  Yikes it is all over now.  Phew.

April brought lovely flowers and a wonderful mix of poetry.  I love April for the simple fact I tend to read more poetry since it is National Poetry month.

It is with sadness that I say goodbye to April's Author in the Spotlight, Pete Hautman.  He is a much admired author for Young Adult fiction.  If you haven't read any of his books, now is the time.

Enter to win a copy of Eden West.  Hurry it ends at midnight tonight.
Eden West Giveaway

Read the book review of Eden West.  Pete Hautman has done it again. He has written a thought provoking, realistic novel for teens. Hautman's fiction always makes me think and look at the world in a new way.  Eden West really makes you think about faith and religion and the self imposed walls that we live behind.  Eden West contains a great cast of characters that you grow to care about.

Eden West Book Review

Check out the author interview with Pete.  Read on for the back story on his new book.  I dare you to guess how many books he has written before you get to question 4.  Also, I'm wondering if you've read the YA book he thinks is must read for everyone. I hope you get a chance to read several of Pete Hautman's books because frankly, his books are worth it.
