I went to a reading by the fabulous Kristin Cashore at the Harvard Book Store tonight. If you like YA fantasy and have not yet read her books Graceling and Fire, I highly recommend them. And if you have, you'll be happy to hear that she's currently working on Bitterblue, although it'll probably be a while before it hits print.
Anyway, she was just lovely. I told her how that I really appreciate the fact that her characters manage to be simultaneously both strong and vulnerable, and how much I enjoy watching the process of them falling in love, which she seemed pleased to hear. And she wrote "for Gilly -- you are strong! :)" in my copy of Graceling. Squee!
