Lucky you. You get a break from my random ramblings for one blog post and one blog post only. Why? Because Ben Esch's debut YA novel Sophomore Undercover was released yesterday. He's a cool cat and a brand spanking new YA author. Though I have not read Sophomore Undercover yet (my copy should be here any day, any minute, any second), I have a feeling this novel will wrap teen readers around its fingers with its humor and genuine honesty about growing up teen.
I'll have more to come about Sophomore Undercover but until then....
Visit Paul Michael Murphy over at Murphblog and check out his v-logs. Funny guy. And likable. Or just go directly to Ben Esch's white-hot web site (I'm digging alliteration today) and read more about it (and play a fun Frogger-type video game, only better).
Congrats, Ben Esch!
Thanks a lot for the "Sophomore Undercover" love. Also, I've been waiting my whole life for somebody to call me a "cool cat" so thanks for making that happen.
ReplyDeleteI mean, I've been calling people "cool cat" my entire life, but you're the first person who has reciprocated. THIS is why I love crossing chalk.
Let me know if the book doesn't arrive in the next day or two. If that doesn't get there, I am going to start throwing stuff.
Ben
Thanks for the link and the kind words. I'm on chapter three and thoroughly enjoying myself. I mean, the book. I'm enjoying the book.
