Excitingly, fantasy rules over at School Library Journal's Battle of the Kids Books! Keeper vs The Ring of Soloman vs Consipracy of Kings (come back from the Dead!)
Here (from me, Charlotte's Library) are the new releases of middle grade sff for the first half of April

The Carnegie Medal Shortlist has been announced...mg sff is represented (I think, kind of) by The Death Defying Pepper Roux (but is this really sff??? I haven't read it)
And finally, Judith at Misrule has been compiling all the links of memories and obituaries for Diana Wynne Jones. Thank you, Judith.

ReplyDeleteAs always...thanks so much for rounding up these reviews! Have a few google reads to make it through then on to these...
ReplyDeleteThanks for these round-ups; they're great fun and very helpful for chasing down books!
ReplyDeleteI have a book review blog, focusing mainly on children's and young adult books, and I am planning a review of the MG fantasy URCHIN OF THE RIDING STARS in the next week. Just a heads-up for the next round-up.
I'm at justbookingaround.blogspot.com
The pleasure is mine, Kailana!
ReplyDeleteAnd you are very welcome, Deb and Rina! Thanks for stopping by!
And thanks for the heads up, Rina-I shall go visit your blog now...
Thanks for the link love, and for a fabulous round-up, as always!
ReplyDeleteAh, great round-up this week. Always a great way for me to increase my TBR list (like that needed to happen)
ReplyDeleteBest, was the round-up of Diana Wynne Jones thoughts. She was a giant and will be greatly missed.
Thanks, Stephanie and Madigan!
