2017 Poetry, YA, and GN 12.31.16


Hard to believe that we're looking at the start of a new year!
I don't know about you, but I'm ready for 2017!
Especially for the books.
This week I'll be spotlighting books to come.
I have pages written in my notebook for each month.
Pulling out just a few over the next few days.  
Lots more to come in 2017!

Today I'm looking at upcoming Poetry, Young Adult and Graphic Novels!
