I just finished reading The Mermaid’s Sister, a lovely little book (I read it in one night), it’s targeted for YA, but it seems almost everything is these days. I have to admit I picked it up because of the cover and if you get a chance to read the book you will note how well illustrated it is, it truly depicts the story so well. The illustrations are by M.S. Corley, I found on his blog the alternate concepts he created for the book (a treat to get a peek behind the scenes). I am trying desperately to fill the void that the Night Circus left, I so want more of that wildly creative world in my reading life, it was one of the books that a lot of you had said was your favorite and I can absolutely see why. So my friends, especially those that recommend the Night Circus what should I read next?

And of course we have a winner to announce!  And the winner is…Chelsea Tschanen! Congrats Chelsea, and even though these are always random picks, Michelle and I both wanted to give a thumbs up to wanting to be Madonna’s backup dancer.
