Our readers aren’t huge fantasy readers though there are exceptions. We have plenty of Harry Potter. Please don’t send these. Many readers read realistic fiction, mysteries and funny stories are popular. Our girls love contemporary lit and pop culture is big. We would love to build a graphic novel/manga collection. We could always use more picture books.


Thank you for your support,

Hi,

I grew up as a reluctant reader. Now I write action-adventures & mysteries, especially for boys 8 and up, that kids hate to put down. My web site is at http://www.maxbooks.9k.com and my Books for Boys blog is at http://booksandboys.blogspot.com
