Denise Jaden's sophomore novel NEVER ENOUGH releases today. I've been looking forward to this release since I enjoyed her first book, LOSING FAITH, which I reviewed in 2010. To coincide with the release of NEVER ENOUGH, Jaden made a short video of young adult authors sharing when they felt like they weren't enough. Beth Kephart recently posted about book trailers, and I think a video like this that is relevant to but independent of the book being promoted is more interesting than a traditional book trailer. What do you think - about book trailers, this video, or the need for self-esteem?

Jason Schwartzman on Reading
I received the links to this videos two days after I saw Funny People, which was an interesting coincidence. (It is a funny movie, though I liked the first half better than the second. It is the most homoerotic movie that isn't an action movie aimed at straight guys I've seen.) Of course, the role he's promoting here is Ash in The Fantastic Mr. Fox.
So, what was your favorite Roald Dahl? I loved CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY, MATILDA, and THE WITCHES.
