But right now, I got myself and my killer.

Four times a year, children's and YA booksellers from across the country nominate and vote on their fave brand-new books. The resulting list is distributed to bookstores all over the country, so it is pretty awesome to be on it. The Winter IndieNext YA picks are...

1. The Maze Runner by James Dashner
(Delacorte Books for Young Readers, $16.99, 9780385737944)
"James Dashner's The Maze Runner is a fast-paced, disorienting, and frighteningly adventurous story, one that any fan of The Hunger Games or Lord of the Flies is sure to love." --Kyla Paterno, Garfield Book Company at PLU, Tacoma, WA

2. Fire by Kristin Cashore
(Dial Books for Young Readers, $17.99, 9780803734616)
"If Kristin Cashore's Graceling was a jewel, Fire is a treasure trove. In this fast-paced fantasy, we remain in the same mythical kingdom but, this time, with a host of new characters, who are marvelous in their complexity and variety. There is plenty of action, a mystery or two, and intrigue galore." --Jennie Turner-Collins, Joseph-Beth Booksellers, Cincinnati, OH

3. Fallen by Lauren Kate
(Delacorte Books for Young Readers, $17.99, 9780385738934)
"Angels, both good and bad, are among us! Fallen is romantic, dark, thrilling and, at the same time, puts a new twist on immortality. So take wing with exciting romance and adventure and take a break from immortals who want your blood!" --Becky Anderson, Anderson's Bookshop, Naperville, IL

4. Flash Burnout by L.K. Madigan
(Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, $16, 9780547194899)
"When he takes a picture of a street person who has passed out for his photography class, class clown Blake expects an 'A.' He doesn't expect that he'll soon be ditching his girlfriend to prowl skid row, or conducting midnight corpse-checks at the morgue to track down his best friend's long-lost mom. This authentic (and surprisingly funny) debut novel is the story of a crash course in what it means to be a boyfriend, and a friend, and a man." --Jennifer Laughran, Books Inc., San Francisco, CA

5. Liar by Justine Larbalestier
(Bloomsbury USA Children's Books, $16.99, 9781599903057)
"Ever since Micah began high school, she has layered falsehood upon falsehood. And even though the entire school knows she isn't trustworthy, Micah somehow continues to dupe them. But when her boyfriend is brutally murdered, Micah must come to terms with the truth in all its horror. In this intriguing novel, readers must decide if Micah is what she says, or if she is simply spinning herself deeper into a web of lies." --Megan Graves, Hooray for Books!, Alexandria, VA

I was just wondering if anyone else has received their items from this sale???

http://community.livejournal.com/mac_cosmetics/32096369.html

I hardly EVER purchase anything online anymore due to all the scamming that was going on for a while but decided to take a chance. :/ I know her post says she mailed out some packages and then was posting again on 11/6 but its not 11/12 and I still haven't received anything. Should I file with paypal?? I emailed her a while ago and never got a response.

I am considering getting a body wave to battle the oilyness of my hair. I love really wavy hair and while my hair is slightly wavy it is also super oily by the end of the day.

I had been dying my hair for the past 5 years & now that my natural hair has all grown out - I am having an oil problem.

I just do not want to end up with fried hair again. Is there a chance that I can get a body wave every few months & it not damage my hair too much?

Lastly, anyone that has gotten a body wave, share photos and stories about your experience?

TY!!

About my hair:

Pretty fried
cannot hold color well (red washes out in a couple weeks)
A very dull neutral grayish brown.
Natural color is a dark red-based brown.

What I have:
Jerome Russell Powder Bleach and 30 Vol cream peroxide
What type of toner do I need to get that perfect whitish-Platinum blonde color?
I also have manic panic cotton candy pink and have this fantasy of having light pinky hair .. dont know if this would be possible. please advise.

Also, I've had blonde hair before, and doing roots was a nightmare. Any tips on how to maintain your roots easily? I want to know this before I take the platinum blonde plunge.

Lastly, Would blonde or pink work with my skin tone?PICS )

(yes, thats my natural hair. i didnt curl it)

now, what color should i dye it?
:D pictures are always nice.

also, this is gonna be my haircut. -growing it out longer so just a trim on the ends, shorter layers, bangs cut shorter (sidebangs)- good?

THANK YOU!!
