Meet Best Selling Young Adult Author Lauren Myracle!Tuesday, March 25th at 7:00 p.m.
Lauren Myracle is the author of numerous best selling books for tweens and teens. She will be visiting Schuler Books to talk about two of her newest books, Thirteen and L8R, G8R.
Thirteen, the much anticipated sequel to Eleven and Twelve, continues the story of Winnie Perry, who is FINALLY a teenager! But Winnie is about to find out that the bigger you get, the bigger your problems get too!
L8R, G8R, now available in paperback, is the best-selling sequel to TTYL and TTFN, Myracle’s innovative novels for teens told entirely through instant messages. Following best friends Maddie, Angela, and Zoe, also known as the winsome threesome, as they get closer to graduation, L8R, G8R shows just how important it can be to have your best friends only an instant message away!

So I went to the book signing. It was a good turn-out--about 30 people, mostly girls and their moms. (I did overhear a couple of great conversations between a teacher and some of her students. They were so happy she came out to hear Myracle!)
I wish you all could have attended because Myracle has the art of the booktalk down. From the Hello Kitty bag slung over her shoulder to the way that she talked about how she remembered her first kiss (safely at 15) she sold her character (and herself) as one who the readers would relate to. In her actual reading she "read with expression" :-) and had the audience hanging.
One thing I liked about her talk is that she talked about other books she loved, including some like "Flowers for Algeron" and "To Kill a Mockingbird".
I'll say more in class!
