I know it's early, but this one's easily my choice for the Printz and whatever other awards it will surely be nominated for. I read the Netgalley and bought my impatient husband the HC. We read side by side and took turns reading the last 100 page...

"I am no longer afraid of getting old. Indeed I can't believe I ever said anything so stupid. So childish. So offensive and arrogant.
But mainly, so very, very stupid. I desperately want to grow old." — Elizabeth Wein |

“I felt like one who wants to trap and cage a little bird, and after years of waiting and luring and baiting finds that she must do no more than hold out her hand, and the finch lands on her finger and does not fly. You scarcely dare to move. It rests on your hand whole and free, foolishly trusting and infinitely courageous. It will never be more beautiful.”

Hello my mother you write good books!That book is the horse without a head. I lost it sorry. Can you dig it out the attic so i can try reading it again?
woo hoo, one of my favorite books has just been recommended by Philip Pullman as a top ten must read. Actually, he's mentioned several of my favorite books, but this is the most obscure:Le Cheval Sans Tete
http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-ent...#
phew... the Doodlebugs book was rather exhausting. Now I have to finish all the others that I put aside to read this...
