What book do you recommend? Is this age appropriate? Give me a topic, and I can usually recommend a great book. Want to start a book club? I can help. Behind in reading? I can recommend books that are age appropriate but easier reading level so you don't get frustrated.

I can answer questions concerning Teen Fiction. I’m happy to recommend books, both to readers and parents. I can make recommendations based on authors you’ve read and liked in the past. Most of my knowledge is in Teen Fiction and Fantasy. I cannot answer questions cocerning the writting or publishing of books. I am very bad at locating books that people have read in the past. I am more into current works, if there is something you've read recently that you need help fiding i'd be happy to help. I'm adding this because I get a lot of questions concerning locating books from 20-30 years ago.

I can answer questions regarding "tween", teen, and young adult literature and make recommendations about books you may like based on genres and authors you've read and liked in the past. I'm most familiar with fantasy (and science fiction, to a certain extent), but I've read plenty of other genres as well, and I will make an effort to find the answer to your question even if I don't know it off the top of my head. However, I do not answer homework questions (so please don't bother asking them), and I'm not very good at finding obscure books---the best I can suggest is a Google search! Thanks!

I can answer questions when people don`t know the author of something or if they would like book recommendations based on a certain genre or author they already like.

I can help you find a good book in pretty much any category. I don't know too much about Sci-fi but I do have friends that are very much into those types of books, so I may be able to recommend some. Other than that, I can help you find pretty much any kind of book you are looking for.

I can answer questions concerning both the general history of the young adult genre and questions about specific books. I'm happy to recommend books, both to readers and to parents looking for books to give their children. I have a limited knowledge of the personal lives of authors (trivia, etc.) but will do my best to find the information you want. Please do NOT send me your homework questions. I won't answer them.
