Not surprising, I haven't read any of those yet. But Annie loved The Underneath!
What about you? I bet you've read them all, right?
No, just the one...so far.
The Underneath and the E. Lockhart books are the only ones that have been released--I believe--and the others will be out soon. I hope to get to them all as soon as I can though.
Thanks for posting the YA list; I'd only seen the fiction list posted.
Haven't read Chains yet, as it's not released, but I'm a loyal Laurie Halse Anderson fan and she's been getting so excited about this book release on her blog! (http://halseanderson.livejournal.com/) So I've got my fingers crossed for her, though I do hope to read them all to form a final opinion. I have the E. Lockhart book on my coffee table right now.
we just got a proof copy of Chains in the shop. I left it there considering I have lots of other books at home, but now I think I might give it a try. It must be good:D
The Writer read a middle draft (does that make sense) of The Underneath and was gobsmacked. Go Kathi!
I haven't read any of these books. Where am I? Living in a cave apparently.
