Leslie was so excited about the illustrations in Why We Broke Up that she snapped a couple of her favorites.

  3. Thanks for sharing those illustrations from Why We Broke Up. I have been curious about that book especially after it received a Printz Honor this past week.

    I want to read Trafficked too. I like the cover of Dreaming Awake. Great books this week!

  17. I got copies of "The Butterfly Clues" and "Goddess Interrupted" from NetGalley. I absolutely can't wait to read "Goddess Interrupted." I loved "The Goddess Test," and I hope this one will be just as good, but I'm making myself wait until closer to the release date to read it, so that my review of it will be fresh in my mind.

    Happy reading!
