The Bloodhound Gang; or "books I am looking forward to that come out soon"

My favorite authors have been busy; there are a whole slew of books I am looking forward to coming out this year. I suppose that's true every year, but occaisionally it seems like there is a dry spell. I had a dry spell in February and March. Two months, how sad! I didn't realize how spoiled I was by the prolific abilities of many of my favorite writers until I started talking to a George Martin fan...


Bloodhound by Tamora Pierce. Coming April 14: Tomorrow! I haven't met a book by Tammy Pierce that I did not like. This particular one I had the pleasure of hearing the author read an excerpt from last September. It was wonderful, and I wouldn't have traded the experience for the world but the wait became excruciating after that point!
