Thank you so much to everyone who entered my giveaway celebrating the cover reveal for The Stars of Summer, sequel to All Four Stars! My editor informed me just this morning that the advance copies are ready, so two lucky winners will be getting their signed copies very soon! And those winners are…

Elizabeth and Ann Buckley!

Congratulations!!

In other news, I had the privilege of participating in an absolutely fantastic panel last night at what has instantly become one of my favorite bookstores: The Voracious Reader in Larchmont, NY. Francine did a super job bringing in middle-graders, and my co-panelists and I spent a happy hour answering questions and giving away Halloween treats to an incredibly smart, engaged group of young readers (and plenty of terrific adults, too). Thank you SO much to everyone who came and talked to us and generally made us feel like authorly rock stars!

Here are a few pics from the event. (Full album at my Facebook author page.)

Great signage from the bookstore.

TWO “Four-star chef” tattoos means that this young fellow is an eight-star chef, right?

The panelists take their seats! (Left to right: Rebecca Behrens, Tara Dairman, Laura Marx Fitzgerald, Lauren Magaziner, Michelle Schusterman)

Laura is very adamant! About…something!

Our treats did not last long. Guess which one was my contribution? 🙂

Signing books, and chatting with an aspiring teen writer.

The authors and their books.

What a night, and what a way to wrap up my latest New York adventure. Until next time!
