Library Trip

I took a trip to the library the other day and picked up a few books and thought I'd do a post about what I will be reading next.

First, is the 2010 Printz Award winner (best Young Adult book of the year) Going Bovine by Libba Bray. 16 year-old Cameron finds out he has Mad Cow disease and is going to die. So he sets out on a journey to find the cure with companions like a dwarf, a punk angel, and a yard gnome. I'm a fan of Libba Bray from her other books and I follow her livejournal I think she is witty and very clever. I look forward to reading the book!


I also picked up Selkie Girl by Laurie Brooks. This book is about a girl named Ellin Jean who has webbed fingers. But she doesn't know just yet exactly how different she really is. This looked like it would be a fun summery girly read!
And finally, Born Confused by Tanuja Desai Hidier. This book is about Dimple, a girl whose family is from India, trying to figure out where she fits in. Not quite American, and not quite Indian.
So that's what is coming up!
