INK Sisters Write

Dear Alison,  Thank you for my letter. I can't wait to read Nicola Yoon's Everything, Everythin g and Padma Venkatraman's A Time To Dance .

They help break up my addiction to series fiction. Speaking of series fiction. Can I totally geek out on you and gush about J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Cursed Child?
