Nancy Pearl and Lizzie Skurnick Dish on YA Lit on Library Lovefest Wednesday 9/23 at 3 pm ET

Shelf Discovery by Lizzie Skurnick

I may just have to skip my meeting this afternoon to make sure I can listen to this show in its entirety. Virginia Stanley, host of Library Lovefest, will have as her guests the legendary Seattle librarian and NPR Commentator Nancy Pearl, and Lizzie Skurnick, of Jezebel's Fine Lines column fame and author of Shelf Discovery: The Teen Classics We Never Stopped Reading. I can't wait to hear these two talk about great young adult literature, they are both so funny and smart. Tune in at 3pm ET and make sure to register beforehand so you can participate in the chat!

LISTEN NOW TO AUTHORS DISCUSSING THEIR BOOKS

Who is Book Club Girl?

  • Book Club Girl is: a member of a book club and an avid reader who spent most of her childhood immersed in a book, an English major who considered library school until she realized it was all about computers, so turned to publishing, where she now works (but she vows to talk about books from all over and not to simply flog those from her own house). She was single, lived in the city, met a man, moved to the 'burbs, and is now a wife, a stepmother, a mother, and in her spare time, a fledgling blogger dedicated to sharing great books, news and tips with book club girls everywhere.

My Review Policy

  • I review fiction and nonfiction that is appropriate for book clubs. This includes literary and some women's commercial fiction as well as memoir and narrative nonfiction. I do not review self-help, thrillers, mysteries, horror, or fantasy. I have a fondness for YA literature and while the blog is not devoted to it (well, except for my obsession with the Betsy-Tacy series), I will occasionally review some YA books. The best way to reach me to request a review is to email me at bookclubgirl AT gmail DOT com.
