Reminiscences on ‘classic’ YA of Yesterday

218.x600.feat.august.books.shelfJezebel columnist Lizzie Skurnick’s has just released a book, Shelf Discovery: The Teen Classic We Never Stopped Reading, which is all about her re-reading and reminiscing on her favorite YA books as a child and teen in ways both humorous and profound…though mostly humorous.

Shelf Discovery includes esays from Skurnick’s Jezebel column, “Fine Lines” and some new additions as well. Essays and titles include, ‘Flowers in the Attic: He ain’t Sexy. He’s my Brother,’ and ‘Summer of My German Soldier: Springtime with Hitler Part I.’ Not to be missed.

Teen Reads has a review and featured preview of the book here.
