Graduation has finally come and gone! What an exciting day it was and just as exciting was being able to spend some time with the good friends I've made over the last eight semesters! Not all the pix are in the slideshows yet. There are some on Ron's phone I have to figure out how to get off and he got some videos that I'll try to get loaded on YouTube .

This last semester in grad school has started pretty smoothly. I've got things all worked out for my practicum and have a good bit of the YA lit class under my belt. One of the YA lit requirements is to do a book talk of six books united by a theme. After finding a spot and discussing it with the teacher, she'd like for me to do Sci-Fi / horror as an introduction to Frankenstein. I've been perusing titles, but before I spend too much time looking at the unknown, I was wondering if you had any YA title suggestions that might be off the beaten path.
