Squeelage and authors appreciation Kami&Margie

I need to squee
A LOT!

i won 'Shiver' by Maggie Stiefvater!

Yes
Yes
YES!

I'll finally know what all the hype is about!!!!!!! =D

If you haven't read it or haven't heard of it..

but
here's the awesome site i won it from:
*fansite of the 'Wolves of Mercy Falls' series*

anywho
i can't squee much because my throat gave out in the middle of the Cultura Profetica concert
*kick-ass puertorican reggae/rap/rock band*
but i'll squee and inform the second that book arrives =)

MOVING ON!

this week has been insane
as some of you must've heard/read
but i can't let it pass by without writing about 2 of my fave authors
*drumroll*
presenting the sweetest
most connected to their fans
NYT & international best-selling authors
Kami Garcia & Margaret Stohl

I'm sure you must all be tired by now of hearing me speak of Beautiful Creatures...
well..
i promise not to talk so much about BC...
*now... Beautiful Darkness is coming out this fall... so... we'll talk later ;)*
but... have i told you about these awesome gals?

Why i DON'T appreciate them
*better start by the shorter list, right?*
- not letting me sleep the day i got Beautiful Creatures
- not letting me study the day i got Beautiful Creatures
- not letting me watch TV the day i got Beautiful Creatures *thank god for sidereel*
(notice how i only wrote 'the day'? well... i couldn't put the book down. literally. i read it in a day xD)

now... on to the good stuff =)

i LOVE them because:
- their book Beautiful Creatures is now one of my favorite books
- their book introduced me to the YA world... therefore expanding my reading horizon
- through their 'Scavenger Hunt' and 'Unlock the Curse' contests i met some great peeps =)
- they are going to write a whole Caster series *i ADORE them for that...*
*check out the 2nd book's (Beautiful Darkness) cover here*
- their book has one of the coolest fansites --> Caster Girls
*check out the forums!*

and that's just stuff about their book...
did i mention they are sweet, funny as heck, act like sisters *although Margie might point out something about Kami's height ^-^*, are very connected to their fans and manage to write, be mothers and tour all over the world while doing that?

they are super people in my book.

wanna see what i mean?
tweet them:
and then let the fireworks roll out =)

aaand that's a wrap!
toodles!~
