One of my favorite books is Perfect Chemistry by Simon Elkeles. I love the way she hits real topics head on with characters that are strong and tenacious. As a bonus: this author can write a seriously hot hook up scene *fans face* ;) Julie Anne Lindsey
I book I really love right now is Jeff Vandermeer’s Wonderbook. It’s given me some really great insights on revision–and it’s pretty to look at too 🙂 Natalie Zaman
Here’s a book I love: Bridge to Terebithia by Katherine Paterson for it’s themes of friendship and dreaming big. It’s a lovely, simple little book that says powerful things. Lisa Cresswell
Divergent by Veronica Roth: Beautiful writing made for a fast-paced read in a fascinating dystopian setting with a strong female lead. It’s one of those rare books for me where I loved the story as much as the writing and it stayed with me long after I read the last word.

I'd have to go with the Bible. If I had to only pick one book. That's it.
Julie Flanders says
Wow, I read The Bronze Horseman years ago and had forgotten all about it. I had no idea it may be made into a movie. Hope it does – it would be a great one.
Hope you had a Happy Valentine's Day, Lee.
Vanessa Morgan says
I haven't read any of those books. Now I have a lot of inspiration for what to read next.

Impressive giveaway, and hey, I think I blurbed Selene's novel. I've heard Chris Crutcher speak. Powerful.

What the heck is wrong with me? Commenting at gone three on a Saturday morning. Has to be a bad case of starstruckitus, methinks.
What a giveway. I'm not so sure it's a good idea to finish writing a novel by a cliff. That's a bit too much dedication for me.
Wonder what a "YA" is? Hope you had the bestest Valentine's Day n'stuff, Lee.
Your starstruckest fan with starstruckitus,
Gary 🙂

Terrific giveaway with fabulous title to choose from! Happy V day.
Lexa Cain says
That's one heck of a giveaway! I love books that are in a series because I love ongoing adventures, but I'd be ticked off if one of my fav authors ended one on a cliffhanger.
Suzanne Furness says
What a great selection of books.
Happy valentine's day
Hilary Melton-Butcher says
Hi Lee .. great list, wish I read or wrote, so I'd know some the of the books at least … but I quite fancy the title"Saved by the Music" .. no idea why – but it piqued my interest…
Have a peaceful and happy Valentine's Day .. cheers Hilary

What a wonderful selection of books! I so hope I win… I have far too many favorite books, but one of them is The Sky Is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson. It's so gorgeously written I want to just drown in the writing.
C. Lee McKenzie says
Hope you win the book you love.
M. J. Joachim says

Amazing list of books. I met Chris Crutcher years ago when we were on a panel together. He's bold and not afraid to write what he does.
C. Lee McKenzie says
I enjoy his books.
