Want It Wednesday: Tenner Feature

Since I was able to pick up a ton of 2009 releases at ALA, I feel silly posting a Want It Wednesday post on a book I already have. This past week I've been tracking down The Tenners on Facebook/Twitter/Blogs so I can start my wish list. So since I'm thinking ahead to 2010, here are my Tenner picks for this week:


The Body Finder by Kimberly Derting

Release Date: 3/16/10

About the Book: A serial killer on the loose. A girl with a morbid ability. And the boy who would never let anything happen to her.

GreenBeanTeenQueen Says: I've been following Kimberly's blog for awhile and with every post I'm getting more and more excited about this book. Violet, the main character, can sense dead bodies, which just sounds like a great twist on a murder mystery. It has mystery, suspense, romance-everything I love! And the cover is beautiful.
Release Date: 4/20/10
About the Book: A fourteen-year-old girl with magical powers finds adventure and romance in Regency England.
GreenBeanTeenQueen: Again, another book with everything I love! I love magic and the regency era combined, and of course throw in some romance and I'll be sure to pick that book up! I already know what teens at my library I'll be giving this one to.

    A Most Improper Magick sounds really good and it has the kind of title I love like Sorcery and Cecelia.

    Oh my goodness, I didn't realize that Magick wasn't going to come out until next April. I don't think I can wait that long! I also thought of Sorcery & Cecelia when I learned about it.

    While I'm iffy about The Body Finder I think my students would enjoy it. I have had some ask for mystery books.

    I've been having problems commenting on your site. I've found a way around it, but it's kind of a pain. Here's my post about the problems blogger's been having with embedded comment boxes: http://athomewithbooks.blogspot.com/2009/07/have-you-been-getting-fewer-comments.html.

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. It starts with comic books and becomes a friendship and a romance that the two will never forget. You never forget your first love. GreenBeanTeenQueen Says: Have you ever had a book sit on your shelf that you've heard so much hype about? And you think that books sounds like it would be right up your alley, but you're in a reading slump and you're afraid to give it a try unless it fails? I knew Eleanor and Park sounded like my perfect book, but I was in such an after committee slump that I even though I knew this book would help, I just didn't want to be disappointed. I should have known better because Eleanor and Park was perfect and everything that I had hoped it wou

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. He fights for Katniss and with Katniss. Peeta is a great diplomat and he knows how to bring people together. He can also be sneaky to get what he wants. Plus, did I mention he can bake? 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
