Sarah Dessen Birthday Celebration!

If you've read the "About Me" info on my sidebar or taken a look at the old pics of my bookshelves, you know that I am a HUGE Sarah Dessen fan.  So when Adele of Persnickety Snark approached me and invited me to be a part of Sarah's month-long birthday celebration, I could not say no!

Little did I know that I would be kicking the celebration off with a post about how I came to love Sarah and her beautiful writing!

Adele has worked extremely hard to make this celebration memorable for Sarah, so be sure to stop in all month long and read guest posts by YA authors and bloggers.  And trust me--there are going to be some well known and loved authors taking part in this awesome event.  You don't want to miss it!

And it's not too late for you to get in on the action!  If you want to wish Sarah a happy birthday, see Adele's instructions on how to do so.

So, thank you Adele for inviting me to be a part of this amazing opportunity.  Your hard work is truly admirable!

No - THANK YOU for your willingness to be a part of it! Sarah emailed me to say that she's known about it a couple of hours. She read your lovely words - yay!

Thanks
