Hello! I have nominated you for a "Sugar Doll Blogger Award"! Participation is optional, but I'm curious to see what blogs you consult. Visit me at http://msyinglingreads.blogspot.com if you would like to jump through the hoops. (It's okay if you don't want to!)
I agree about Going Bovine, but I had to throw in another weird, hilarious book about a teen going through something possibly fatal: Jack Tumor. Loved it!
