Breathless Reads Tour Books of Wonder is one of my favourite places to hang out. Not only does it have a great little cupcake shop with comfortable seating inside and scones from Alice’s Tea Cup, it also stocks a number of children’s (and young adults) books. One of the greatest things about this bookstore - apart from its charm - is that it connects readers and authors.  Last week I went to Books of Wonder to see Andrea Cremer, Beth Revis, Jessica Spotswood and Marie Lu on their Breathless Reads tour. It was a fun experience, Andrea announced that she was moving to NY to pursue her writing career and that she’s working on a steampunk trilogy (I like the way she writes, but I really hope she handles the love angle differently). Beth, always funny; I love her stories - especially the one where she read the abridged, children’s version of Little Women and thought that Beth moved to a house by the sea! I think I read the same one when I was younger, I understand the confusion. :) Jessica is just too adorable, she (and Beth) revealed that they use their husbands for kissing research; I’m sure their hubbies don’t mind. Marie, who was a video game art director before Legend, loved ponies and horse stories growing up. If you’re a New Yorker and live in the metro area, you have to make it out to a Books of Wonder event. It’s a great way to discover new books and new authors. It’s also a great place to find signed copies of books.   Read reviews of Across the Universe, Nightshade and Born Wicked.  Twitter || Goodreads || LibraryThing || Amazon || B&N || Shelfari || Google+
