This week I chose:
"Another Pan"
by Daniel Nayeri and Dina Nayeri
Candlewick Press
Release Date: October 26, 2011
The following description is from goodreads.comSixteen-year-old Wendy Darling and her insecure freshman brother, John, are hitting the books at the Marlowe School. But one tome consumes their attention: THE BOOK OF GATES, a coveted Egyptian artifact that their professor father believes has magical powers. Soon Wendy and John discover that the legend is real—when they recite from its pages and descend into a snaking realm beneath the Manhattan school. As the hallways darken, and dead moths cake the floor, a charismatic new R.A. named Peter reveals that their actions have unleashed a terrible consequence: the underworld and all its evil is now seeping into Marlowe. Daniel Nayeri and Dina Nayeri return to reimagine Peter Pan as a twisty, atmospheric, and fast-paced fantasy about the perils of immortality.
WoW indeed!! Words cannot express how much I need to read this book!! Peter Pan is my absolute favorite classic children's story and I'm so excited to see it remade into a YA fantasy book!! I can't wait!!
What are you waiting on this week??
