Kody Keplinger, author of The Duff is going to come out with another new book in 2011 entitled Luststruck - A contemporary reimagining of the Greek play, "Lysistrata," in which high school senior Lissa decides it's time to end her school's ridiculous sports rivalry once and for all by starting a hook-up strike. (Goodreads.com)

Did you know that Melissa Marr, author of the Wicked Lovely series, is coming out with an adult title this spring?  Wicked.  BTW, she really is awesome in person.

Something rather nice for the Christmas season...if you can recall, there was a little novella published earlier this year entitled The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner.   Little Brown Books and Stephenie Meyer had pledged to donate $1 from every sale of this book (first printing) to the American Red Cross. They donated 1.5 million. Yay for authors, publishers and philanthrophy! (Thanks to Shelf Awareness for this info).



That's all I've got for you this week kids.  Wishing you all the best this Christmas Eve!  Don't forget to leave cookies and milk for Santa tonight!
