Tucson Festival of Books Reading Picks

By Theresa Shaw

I’m just now reocuping from the Tucson Festival of Books (#TFOB on twitter). Based on the entertaining and enlightening author sessions, here are the titles on my ‘to read’ list:

Megan McCafferty’s Perfect Fifths: Story takes place over 18 hours and her publisher let her include 80 pages of pure dialogue- I can’t wait!
Janette Rallison’s Fair Godmother: She gave really helpful advice to new writers. What if a fairy failed out of godmother school and only got a ‘fair’ rating? It’s been optioned for the big screen!
Laura Fitzgerald’s One True Theory of Love
Page & Dornenburg’s The Flavor Bible: (okay, not a read, but a kitchen reference and check it out in this month’s Oprah mag)
Jill Wolfson’s Cold Hands Warm Heart : Teen dies, follows the story of who gets the organs
