![]() ![]() ![]() A medium iced vanilla latte? Sweet, smart and gentle. Jane works with her friend, Em, at a local Chicago coffeehouse, where she enjoys correlating customers’ personalities with the type of drinks they order. I’ve always believed the old adage, "you are what you eat." In this fun, breezy story, which School Library Journal has called "compulsively readable," the main character, Jane Turner (a 17-year-old barista), believes people are what they drink - at least when it comes to a cup of Joe. Whether or not you worship at the altar of caffeine, The Espressologist is sure to tickle your fancy and lift your spirits. Sip, sip, sip and join me in a jazzy java jive, because today, Kristina Springer’s very first YA novel, The Espressologist (FSG, 2009), is officially out! Yay!! Would you like it black, or with a little sugar and milk? Breathe in that rich, divine aroma of freshly brewed Arabica beans. Time to wake up and smell the coffee! I’ve poured a steamy cup just for you. ![]()
