Recently read:

WILL GRAYSON, WILL GRAYSON, by John Green and David Levithan.  Yes, they're both my friends, and YES, this book is most seriously excellent. Alternating stories of two guys in Chicago named Will Grayson, and their relationships with the women in their lives, and with one huge force of a guy namae Tiny Cooper. It comes out in April and you should pounce on it.

AIRHEAD by Meg Cabot.  I am probably the last person on earth to read it, but it is very, very good fun, and there's a sequel called Being Nikki.  Smart geeky girl's brain gets transplanted into the body of a 17 year-old supermodel.  The perfect vacation read. 

LUV YA BUNCHES by Lauren Myracle. Yes, she is my friend too!    A good holiday giftie for your  3-5th grader pals, this is super fun and honest and touching, in LM's signature style. It's about four very different girls who all become friends.  And read all about how LM stood up to Scholastic when they asked her to change Milla's two mommies so as to get her book in all the bookfairs!  She is a hero of free speech, that Lauren.  

Oh, and on the adult front, I am also reading Conversations with Woody Allen, various cookbooks, How I Became a Famous Novelist (which Sarah Mlynowski promised me is the funniest book ever written), Broadway Anecdotes, Metropolis by Elizabeth Gaffney, and I keep starting Fingersmith but not reading it even though I know it will be awesome.  I seem to be slow to finish all of these books, but I am loving them anyway. 

Happy fall.
