SILVER KISS shares list space with Poppy Z Brite, also, yay!

I know, it's a terrible blog title, but the title I wanted to use wouldn't fit in the bar. It's this!:

SILVER KISS nominated for ALA Over the Rainbow Project's 2010 Bibliography of Recommended Adult Books.

"Each year, the Over the Rainbow Project will publish a bibliography of recommended books for general readership. The bibliography will include books published between July 1 and December 31 of the previous calendar year. The committee’s charge is to create a bibliography of books that exhibit commendable literary quality and significant authentic lgbt content and are recommended for adults over age 18."

OMG, and SILVER KISS has been shortlisted! Alongside Poppy Z Brite and Jacqueline Carey, to name but two massively talented authors. How surreal is that? I feel so honoured and bouncy! The final list will be released in January 2011, and obviously my fingers are crossed I'll be on it, but even getting this far feels like a huge deal, and I may well have to celebrate with cake and ice cream. Who's with me?!
