Why hello everybody! The Book Muncher here. Some of you may know me from my book reviewing blog (http://thebookmuncher.blogspot.com/) or from the other bookish sites I frequent (BookDivas, Good Reads, anybody?).

A little about myself for those of you who don’t personally know me (which I’m sure is most of you). I’m a book reviewer and a passionate reader, especially when it comes to YA. I am a teen somewhere between the ages of 14 and 18 (feel free to guess). I’m in a lot of tough classes in school (some college level) which assign a LOT of homework, so it’s a wonder I still have time to keep up my book blogging.

I am also the *only* teen contributor to Stupid Name Blog. I find this fact supremely awesome, and I probably won’t even be able to get over it (or myself for that matter).

What is “Book Squee” you ask? Well, it is my recent enthusiasm over an ah-mazing book I just read. It’s called Wherever Nina Lies and it’s by a promising debut author Lynn Weingarten. I was so psyched to get an ARC (it’s being released in February ‘09, I think) and even more thrilled when the story outlived my expectations.

In fact, you can even read my review on Amazon (it’s not up on my blog yet):

“It’s been two long years since Ellie’s older sister Nina has disappeared. Pretty much everyone has given up any hope that Nina will return, but not Ellie. Ellie can’t bear to think Nina, her sister whom she loves and idolizes, could be dead. Ellie desperately wants to find Nina, and when she stumbles upon a portrait of her, drawn by Nina, she’s certain she’s found her clue. With the help of a hot and mysterious stranger named Sean, Ellie sets off on a seemingly wild-goose chase for the whereabouts of her sister. But Ellie isn’t prepared for what she learns along the way, regarding her sister and her new love interest Sean. In this suspenseful and fast-paced debut, readers will be swept along with Ellie as she journeys and finds love, lies, and the strength of sisterhood.

Sounds good, huh? I thought it did

Anyway, that’s all for now!
