Want to read Jessie's Mountain. I'm also curious about Crimes of the Sarahs. Dying to read The Adoration of Jenna Fox. Loved Robot Dreams!

Very different stories, all worth telling.

I finished What Happens Here last night. I just happened to get an advanced copy. Loved it! What a wonderful story. I'll have to go back and read her first book.

What Happens Here is a jaw-dropper, and The Pursuit of Happiness is incredibly moving. Also grab her novels in adult fic/lit, published under Tara McCarthy: Love Can Tear Us Apart and Wouldn't Miss It For the World.
