Hey! Welcome to the official homepage of Kimberly Pauley (author, book reviewer, wife, mommy, short person, crafting fiend…). You might know me best as my alter-ego The YA Books Goddess @ Young Adult Books Central, where I’ve been reviewing and giving away thousands of books since 1998.

Cool Free Stuff
These are some ongoing giveaways that’ll never end (well, until I run out of supplies). Would you like a free signed batty bookplate for your copy of Sucks to Be Me? Check this out to find out what you need to do to get one.
Do you have a reading group (or are you a librarian or teacher or heck, anyone) and you’d like a copy of the Reading Guide for the book? And not just a reading guide but also a whole little care package of Sucks to Be Me goodies (like bookmarks and stickers)? And not just a care package but also a chat or phone call with me to your group?? Ha, I knew you would!
Find out what you have to do to get your own Reading Group care package.
