UNGIFTED CRACKS BESTSELLER LIST!!!

Great news! UNGIFTED has made it to the NY Times extended bestseller list for middle grade paperbacks. This is almost unheard of for a title that has already been out for a year and half. It that a book has been steadily building an audience rather than cracking the list with a quick flurry of sales.

To all my gifted UNGIFTED fans, thank you, thank you, thank you. A special shout out to the many state and provincial young readers’ choice awards and countless summer reading programs that have embraced my books. I always knew there was a place for serious literature on the bestseller list. Now I know there’s a place for serious literature in which a 400-pound globe of solid metal falls off a titan’s shoulders, rolls down a hill, and annihilates a school gym!
