Looking ahead to 2008

Because all the cool kids are doing it (yeah, yeah, cyber bud, I stole your line...so sue me) - some of the books I'm looking forward to this year (in no particular order and probably forgetting something wonderful):

Trouble by Gary Schmidt

The Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary Pearson

Jessie's Mountain by Kerry Madden

Bird Lake Moon by Kevin Henkes (and yeah, Sarah, I stole your image, too.)

The Life and Crimes of Bernetta Wallflower by Lisa Graff

Shooting the Moon by Frances O'Roark Dowell

Jump the Cracks by Stacy DeKeyser

And - no cover available (that I could find): Keeping Score by Linda Sue Park
