haha yeah, I giggled to myself when I read your post cause I TOTALLY would have hopped the fence too.

I was at this photo shoot a couple weeks ago and one of the models there was Anne's daughter. I missed Megan Fallows by like half an hour.  Probably a good thing cause I would have giggled like a fan girl.

Totally would have been right there with you giggling Kelly. Jullily I keep telling my husband that when he plans vacations for out of the country that I would rather go to Canada then Mexico and he has yet to figure out why despite me watching my Anne of Green Gables movies once a month. :-D

Read Kissed by an Angel. It is AMAZING. I still love this book. It is totally fluff. (which I know you love), but so bittersweet and just..Ahhhh... .lol. It is by Elizabeth Chandler. Here is a synopsis of the book for ya.

Ivy always believed in angels. When she meets Tristan, it's the love of a lifetime. When he dies, her heart is broken and her belief in angels vanishes. And without that belief, she is unable to feel Tristan's presence when he returns--as an angel. Now Ivy is in terrible danger, and Tristan is struggling to save her. How can he protect her if she's lost her faith in angels?

Most of her books are pretty good. You should check her out.

Okay, so I've never read this author's work before, but, after reading her reviews and finding out that people think she's one of the best YA writers to come along in a while, I'm definitely going to check her out. Her name is Sarah Dessen, and some of her works are "The Truth About Forever," "Just Listen," and "This Lullaby". Actually, the synopsis for Just Listen sounds along the lines of your stuff, Kelly. Well, sort of lol

Last year, Annabel was "the girl who has everything"—at least that’s the part she played in the television commercial for Kopf ’s Department Store.This year, she’s the girl who has nothing: no best friend because mean-but-exciting Sophie dropped her, no peace at home since her older sister became anorexic, and no one to sit with at lunch. Until she meets Owen Armstrong. Tall, dark, and music-obsessed, Owen is a reformed bad boy with a commitment to truth-telling.With Owen’s help,maybe Annabel can face what happened the night she and Sophie stopped being friends.

Gosh, i really need to go to the library lol

lol that actually does sound a lot like me. you guys are pretty awesome. I was at the bookstore the other day and Meg Calbot, and another author named Kate Brian both seemed the most similar to me I think. And then this one book called Audrey, Wait by Robin Benway caught my interest and will be the first book on my list.  hehe it's about this girl (named audrey) who breaks up with this boy and then his band's song Audry, Wait! blows up huge on the radio and people find out that she's the Audry from the song. haha I was kind of excited in a I'm such a dork kind of way. But, seriously, keep em coming ladies! You all are fantastic!

[Sakabelle]

I love, love, LOVE "The Bell Jar" by Sylvia Plath.. it's about a girl growing up in New York and yeah.. just being a girl. "I suck at summaries, just read it!" lol but seriously it's very good.  I enjoyed it a lot while I was going through that young adult "what am I going to do with my life?!" phase.

I love that Barnes and Noble.com gives you excerpts of the novels because I loved reading Dessen's excerpts. To be honest, while the subject is totally you, the writing sounds a little more like an adult. So, almost like if I were to try to write a YA story (which, haha, I am lol), that's what it would sound like. Your stuff actually sounds genuinely like a teenager writing about his/her life, which is awesome and ridiculously difficult for adults to do...so you rock!

I love Meg Cabot's Princess Diaries series..though my cousins stole my books so boo, but yeah, I was mad when the movies weren't as good and fabricated a lot of the story lol Hmm, the Aubry one sounds interesting. Wow, I'm totally going to have a summer reading list that isn't full of classic (and, to me, boring) books lol YAY!

Yes!!  I recommended this one earlier.  You and I are like clones when it comes to taste in books.

Kissed by an Angel sounds cheesy (especially from the title LOL), but it's really not, as far as YA romances go.
