New CHERUB and More

These two new books have come in recently.

Divine Madness by Robert Muchamore, is the latest in the CHERUB series. In this one, a link is discovered between an eco-terrorist group and a wealthy religious cult and James is sent to their isolatated outback headquarters on an infiltration mission. This is a good series. If you haven't tried it yet, start with The Recruit.

Sixteen: Stories About That Sweet and Bitter Birthday is a collection of short stories edited by Megan McCafferty and written by some of the best YA authors around, including M. T. Anderson, Tanuja Desai Hidier, David Levithan, Sarah Mlynowski, Sonya Sones, and Ned Vizzini. The subtitle pretty much sums it up.
