Thank You
Citrine A
THANK YOU, #PNBA for a warm and wonderful Kids' Table dinner on Sunday. It was so good that I once again failed to take a single picture. (@ttigani, we forgot.) But the next day I went to a garden and considered the great luck of landing my life with books and book people. https://t.co/qiujPyf2my

Wilder

Here on my kitchen counter you see WILDER by @andrewSimonet. It’s thought-provoking, compelling YA lit, with a story that never stops until it drops you. (In a good way.) https://t.co/OAh5aAYPMf https://t.co/Ld7du1KiUw
