Want It Wednesday


Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld

Release Date: 10/6/2009

About the Book: It's the start to a new series, and it's set in an alternate 1914 where biotechnology was discovered Charles Darwin and now there are all sorts of cool techno beasties. You can find a fun FAQ about the book on Scott Westerfeld's blog.

GreenBeanTeenQueen Says: Steampunk, new series, awesome cover-I want!!! I would love it if this one showed up at ALA! :)


Quatrain by Sharon Shinn

Release Date: 10/6/2009

About the book: This is an anthology of novelleas set in the worlds of Shinn's previous novels, Archangel, Heart of Gold, Summers at Castle Auburn, and Mystic and Rider.

GreenBeanTeenQueen Says: Yep, I'm a cover whore-I admit it, the cover is the real reason I want it. It's amazing and beautiful and I totally want that girls dress! So I haven't read anything by Sharon Shinn, but I think a book of novellas would be a great place to start!

    OOOOH. I want Scott Westerfeld's new book too! So much so that I shamelessly plugged my blog on his website. But hey, if it works, I get to read it before anyone else. Then I'll share it with you. Fingers crossed.

Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell

Rating: 5/5 Stars Genre: Realistic Fiction Release Date: 2/26/2013 Add to Goodreads About the Book: Eleanor and Park are both misfits. When new girl Eleanor sits next to Park on the bus, they don't want anything to do with each other. But over the course of the school year, things change.

13 District Mockingjay Tour: District 4

Hello and welcome to District Four. I'm sorry that Finnick isn't here to be your host. I know as a member of District Four I should be cheering for my own tribute, but after watching the last two Hunger Games play out I have fallen in love with Peeta Mellark! Why do I love Peeta? He's smart, he's funny, and he's charming. He stands up for what he believes, he's loyal and he's not afraid to do what's right. He's sensitive and caring but can also be strong and kick butt.

And he's hot!! But it's not just me! We have an underground club of sorts here in District Four-Seafaring Librarians for Peeta! Here's what some of our members had to say about their love for Peeta: - Team Peeta!! I love their relationship because they balance each other perfectly. Where
