Amelia Press Roundup 3/8

When my last book, Midnight Sun, came out I made a point of posting links to all of the reviews it received.  I noticed eventually, though, that most of the more substantive reviews wound up getting links from ComicsReporter and/or Journalista, so I vowed that with whatever book I did next, I’d stop posting review links.  Curiously, though, with Amelia, a lot of the reviews so far don’t seem to be getting picked up by the comics news sites.  This is, I think, probably tied in somehow with Amelia being from a big, primarily prose publisher–rather than a dedicated comics and graphic novels house.  At some point I’m going to a post about the various differences between doing a book for a company like SLG vs. a big trade publisher.  There are certainly some interesting differences.  In the meantime, though, here’re a few appearances of Amelia-related stuff around the interwebs:

• At Winged Victory: The Women in Aviation Webzine
• A  great review at the School Library Journal
• A nice mention from “The Goddess of YA Literature”
• Review from the Rutgers University Project on Economics and Children
• A nice writeup from Vermont’s Valley News, primarily a profile of Amelia writer, Sarah Stewart Taylor
• From Through the Looking Glass Children’s Book Reviews
• Another solid review, this time from Graphic Novel Reporter
• A Metrokids recommendation for Women’s History Month
• And a similar recommendation from Between the Covers.
