This week's theme is Self-respect. In Monday's guest post, featured author E. Lockhart wrote:
"Ruby goes from calling herself a leper (really grodie and unloved) to calling herself a roly-poly (only a little grodie and even beloved by certain bug-fond weirdos). A bit of progress, right."
Sometimes we all judge ourselves harshly. Have you experienced that? How did you change that mindset and up your self-respect factor like Ruby does over these four books?
Hey all. Just posting a little something I did for Clubhouse magazine’s April ’11 issue. It’s Easter-related, as you can see and was a really fun piece to pull together. I enjoy doing the busy scenes. It’s always a special challenge to integrate the “silly things” these puzzles house. In this case, the kiddos are to find things that begin with “SU”. See if you can find them too!

Perhaps you've heard about this
Rock the Drop thing, where we'll be dropping books in public places on Thursday to celebrate YALSA's Support Teen Lit Day, and we hope everyone will join us!
Here's even more incentive: If you
Rock the Drop, send us an email (
readergirlz AT gmail DOT com) or a photo or a video (just let us know you've rocked it, really), and
you'll be entered to win a full set of featured author E. Lockhart's Ruby Oliver series! We'll choose a winner at random on Friday.
Good luck!
Siobhan Vivian's Not That Kind of Girl is our featured title this week, and in her guest post on Monday, she wrote the following:
"One thing I really wanted to impress upon my readers is that making a 'mistake' doesn’t mean that you are a bad person and are not deserving of respect. I think we, as a culture, are so quick to judge. We expect girls to be perfect, to never make mistakes, to always be smart and rational and make the right decisions. I’m sorry, but that’s just not possible!"
Have you ever been quick to judge someone else? A friend, an acquaintance, or even maybe a celebrity or someone in the public eye?
