As you all know I love spreading the word about awesome Aussie young adult authors. Kirsty Eagar author of Raw Blue and Saltwater Vampires would have to be one of my absolute favourites. Kirsty's books are intensely readable, honest and beautiful.
My co-host for this event is Linds from Bibliophile Brouhaha and if you know Linds you would know that she is Raw Blue biggest fan. Linds personal quest is to see that Raw Blue gets published in the US.
