Not sure I've ever heard an award acceptance speech that has made me want to go and buy a book as quickly as this one 👏👏👏

Thanks @WRDmag for Grian, Shelli and Jeffrey’s cover girl/boy omoment - they look great!!! Can’t wait to get my hands on a copy.

[Tom G 📕 @checkemoutbooks]

The new @WRDmag magazine is out for autumn & winter - love reading this with my chn at home then taking it into school for reading corners. Great YA choices too! This month is my fav issue so far - lots of interviews, activities & books to go on Christmas lists 🤩📚

[Eve McDonnell 💫 See you on Instagram 😀 @Eve_Mc_Donnell]

This is brilliant news, @KidsBooksIrel! Are you taking note, aspiring children’s writers and illustrators of Ireland?! This is for you….

[Joel/JJ Arcanjo @Joelarcanjo]

The discussion on this thread has thrown up a number of excellent recommendations for teen boy readers, so im including a list of those here. I'm keeping it to recently published books/ongoing series rather than books published 10+ years ago. If you have more, please share them!

[Helena Duggan @Heldideas]

She’s a brilliant writer and please tell her I was also inspired by @jk_rowling books growing up so to think my stories inspired your daughter too is really lovely!

[Kelly @kelly36634109]

@jk_rowling and @Heldideas you have inspired my 11 year old so much that she comes home from school having written extracts like this. One of her many one page ideas. Thank you ❤️ #reading #aplacecalledperfect #HarryPotter #childhood #literacy

[Helena Duggan @Heldideas]

All of them please!

[Eve McDonnell 💫 See you on Instagram 😀 @Eve_Mc_Donnell]

Here are 3 fab recently released books, each the latest in a series. For 6+ I love @SJOHart’s Lola and Larch stories, for 8+ @AlNolan’s Molly & Bram adventures are the perfect mix of fun and history, and for 9+ @Heldideas’s The Light Thieves series rock! #DIKBChallenge24

[Helena Duggan @Heldideas]
