Colette:
I read the first two books and loved them. I really liked the action. I usually don’t like romance, but this one was good!
Laura says:
“We are excited and sad to see the series come to an end but we cannot wait to see what the finale will reveal and we are hoping for an epic ending for our most beloved characters!!! We also are grateful to have three more years with Tris and Four on the big screen! Now we must leave you with some swoon-worthy movie posters!” – TeenPressCorps
You can check out the whole story and dish more about your thoughts on the forth-coming book and movie on the TeenPressCorps blog!

Tuesday night, we had local, debut YA Authors Sara Kocek and Amy Rose Capetta in the store to talk about their latest books!
Sara Kocek signed copies of her first book, Promise Me Something.
As if starting high school weren’t bad enough, Reyna Fey has to do so while helping her father recover from the car accident that almost took his life. Oh, and maybe even make some new friends. Then, Olive Barton notices her. Olive is not exactly the kind of new friend Reyna had in mind. The boys make fun of her, the girls want to fight her, and Olive seems to welcome the challenge. There’s something about Olive that Reyna can’t help but like. But when Reyna learns Olive’s secret, she must decide whether it’s better to be good friends with an outcast or fake friends with the popular kids before she loses Olive forever.
Amy Rose Capetta signed of her first book Entangled.
Seventeen-year-old Cade is a fierce survivor, solo in the universe with her cherry-red guitar. Or so she thought. Her world shakes apart when a hologram named Mr. Niven tells her she was created in a lab in the year 3112, then entangled at a subatomic level with a boy named Xan. Cade’s quest to locate Xan joins her with an array of outlaws–her first friends–on a galaxy-spanning adventure. And once Cade discovers the wild joy of real connection, there’s no turning back.
Signed books are still available on our shelves and online. Just write “signed copies” in the comment section when you purchase the books online.

“Steelheart is an action packed, suspenseful thrill ride that will keep you guessing until the very end. Brandon Sanderson is an astonishing writer. He has written a whole new twist on Superheroes and made them not so hero-like.” – Kendall, TPC
