My Final Author was Philippa Gregory

Philippa Gregory wasn't on my original unread authors list for this challenge, but she is a new-to-me author, and I just finished reading her historical novel The Other Boleyn Girl. I've reviewed it here, and I expect I'll be reading more of Gregory's books.

This is my sixth - and final - book for this challenge. I'll link to a wrap-up post on my book blog shortly. I look forward to participating in another round later this year. Thanks, Pour of Tor!

Princess Academy by Shannon Hale

I've finished my fifth book for this challenge, finally reading one of Shannon Hale's young adult fantasy novels. Princess Academy was delightful! You can read my full review here. I will definitely be reading more of Hale's books.

Nothing but the Truth (and a Few White Lies)by Justina Chen Headley

Justina Chen Headley wasn't on my original list of possible authors for this challenge, but I stumbled upon her not too long ago and read her debut novel Nothing but the Truth (and a Few White Lies) this week. You can read my review here. I am definitely going to be reading more of Headley's work!

Specials by Scott Westerfeld

This is now the third book I've read by previously "unread author" Scott Westerfeld. I've posted a brief review here. I'm eager to read more of his work!

Another Scott Westerfeld Novel

I decided to read Pretties, the second book in the Uglies trilogy - which somehow now has four books - as my second book for this challenge. (I've posted a very brief review here.) I am enjoying Westerfeld's work and plan to finish the Uglies series as part of this challenge.

Uglies by Scott Westerfeld

I've yet to make more than a preliminary list of the authors I'm going to read for this challenge, but I did read my first book this week: Uglies by Scott Westerfeld. My 16-year-old daughter has read many of Westerfeld's young adult novels, and I've been meaning to check them out - so this challenge provided the perfect opportunity. I've posted a review of Uglies on my book blog (click here). I definitely enjoyed the book and am looking forward to reading more from this new-to-me author!
