Cover Alert: Rules of Attraction by Simone Elkeles

If you're a fan of Elkeles' PERFECT CHEMISTRY, be sure to check out her next novel, RULES OF ATTRACTION!

Rules of Attraction by Simone Elkeles (Walker Books, 4/27/10)
New sparks will fly in the sequel to Simone Elkeles’s breakout book Perfect Chemistry

When Carlos Fuentes returns to America after living in Mexico for a year, he doesn’t want any part of the life his older brother, Alex, has laid out for him at a high school in Colorado. Carlos likes living his life on the edge and wants to carve his own path—just like Alex did. Then he meets Kiara Westford. She doesn’t talk much and is completely intimidated by Carlos’ wild ways. As they get to know one another, Carlos assumes Kiara thinks she’s too good for him, and refuses to admit that she might be getting to him. But he soon realizes that being himself is exactly what Kiara needs right now.
With new characters to fall in love with and the same hot romance found in Perfect Chemistry, Simone Elkeles has crafted another sure-fire hit for teens.

Not only does this novel sound amazing - I love the cover art! I can't wait until April!

Random Saturday + other stuff

This Random Saturday meme is hosted by Sharon @ Sharon Loves Books and Cats!

Some of you may know that I recently (Tuesday) moved to Kalamazoo, where I will be going to school for the next 3 years. Unfortunately, I had to leave behind my kitty, Daemon, *sob* who I miss terribly. Cats are not allowed in dorm rooms... :( I miss him and his antics. Every night when I tried to read he would come and lay down on top of my book (all the way across the book) because he was jealous that he wasn't getting the attention. He was a cutie - though, I must admit that he is the loudest cat I have ever met. :) I can't wait to see him when I go home next month! Here is a picture:

Isn't he cute???

Did anyone hear that Simone Elkeles is writing a sequel to Perfect Chemistry??? Yup -it's true! I'm pumped about it! Apparently this book is about Alex's brother, Carlos, and is called Rules of Attraction. Alex and Brittany will still be present, but Carlos and a new girl will be the focus. Rules of Attraction is to be released in May 2010! Can't wait!! And if you haven't read Perfect Chemistry yet: READ IT, YOU CRAZY! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR. I mean, read it, if you want. :) It is really, really good!

This week I moved to Kalamazoo - which is much bigger than my hometown in NE Michigan. The first day I was here I checked out the library, like any respectable bookworm would! It is seriously amazing! So you can count on seeing some awesome reviews soon. Well, as long as school isn't too crazy!
