"What's New": April New Releases & Giveaway

April already!  Well, dear readers, really nothing going on for me this month except a boat-load of awesome April releases (see the 1st and the 8th below! O_O). I was hoping to take a trip to TXLA, but that ended up not panning out money-wise. For all you lucky readers who are going, have a fantastic time rubbing elbows with lots of fantastic publishers and cool librarians!! 

So if you're new to Stories & Sweeties, here's a little run-down of this feature: at the start of each month, I do a little thing called the "What's New List & Giveaway" where you'll find a full list of the new releases in YA for the month, and entry to the giveaway. At the end of each month, one lucky winner will get to choose any new release as their prize!

 First things first! The winner of March's giveaway was: Kelley! Congratulations!!
