I’m ending 2012 with some awesome book news! Through Her Eyes was selected to be on the 2013 Tayshas
High School Reading List!
A little (humble) bragging, if I may: Here’s a little snippet from the notification I received from the Texas Library Association. “The Tayshas reading list highlights the best fiction and non-fiction books for Texas teens. It is one of the most respected state reading lists in the country…”
How cool is that?!
Some of my all-time favorite books and authors have been on the Tayshas list in the past. Here are just a few:
SPEAK by Laurie Halse Anderson
JOY SCHOOL by Elizabeth Berg
PLACES I NEVER MEANT TO BE by Judy Blume
MOONLIGHT BECOMES YOU by Mary Higgins Clark
DREAMLAND by Sarah Dessen
LOOKING FOR ALASKA by John Green
INCANTATION by Alice Hoffman
THE SECRET LIFE OF BEES by Sue Monk Kidd
OWL IN LOVE by Patrice Kindle
THE ROAD by Cormac McCarthy
SHINE by Lauren Myracle
BEFORE I FALL by Lauren Oliver
THE ADORATION OF JENNA FOX by Mary Pearson
NINETEEN MINUTES by Jodi Picoult
THE LOVELY BONES by Alice Sebold
DOUBLE HELIX by Nancy Werlin
I AM THE MESSENGER and THE BOOK THIEF by Markus Zusak
Now you understand why I’m jumping up and down!

Jennifer I just got done reading your book Through Her Eyes. I really like reading books like these. When I was reading it I kinda imagined a movie in my mind. This was a really great book. I can’t wait to read some more of your books!!
Hi Amber,
