MAJOR HAPPY DANCE BEGINNING IN 3. . . 2 . . . 1!!!


EEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! <---how Sara sounds when she's SUPER EXCITED TO SHARE SOME AWESOME NEWS

And this awesome news has had such a LONG TIME coming to you!

GUESS WHICH IMMENSELY TALENTED AUTHOR HAS ANOTHER BOOK DEAL?????

Seriously. Even Jason Bateman wants to know!


Well, Jason Bateman, I can FINALLY tell you and the rest of the world that it's THIS GIRL!! 


SHANNON MESSENGER!!

You guys all know about my abso-freaking-amazing CP Shannon's deal for her MG series, starting with Keeper of the Lost Citiesannounced in October. (Which, for the record, I am *still* happy dancing about!) (And have you seen the awesomesauce cover for it???)

BUT SHE ALSO SOLD HER YOUNG ADULT SERIES!! A two-book deal, starting with Let the Sky Fall

I want to tell you all about it, but I like to let Shannon do that herself--it is her news, after all. (Check out her blog post here!) I *will* however, tell you this:

Dude, it's. so. freaking. good. 

Like, steal-the-wind-from-your-lungs-when-you-read-it good. 

(Pun intended!) 

(Ba-doom-ching.)

I was going to film myself doing a happy dance for her, but this guy pretty much sums it up:


♥♥Congratulations, Shannon! I truly couldn't be happier for your SUPER DUPER DESERVED success. I can't wait for this book to sweep the world away with it's moving story, amazing characters, and gorgeous prose. ♥♥

Dude. What are you still doing here? Head over to her blog to check it all out!!!!
