we named a burger in their honor
they sat down for our pop quiz interview, bared their souls, and designed their own burgers for our honorary menu:
The E Lockhart Burger: a well-spiced veggie burger, topped with blue cheese, lettuce, dijon mustard and extra pickles. ("I am a vegetarian, Bookburger. Like Roo in The Boyfriend List.")
read the interview
The Ally Carter Burger: mayo and mustard. And lettuce, pickles, and swiss cheese. ("Okay now I’m hungry. This is all your fault!")
read the interview
The Kieran Scott Burger: American cheese, bacon, lots of ketchup, red onions and lettuce. ("Let no pickle touch my burger lest you wish to feel the full scope of my wrath!")
read the interview
The Rachel Cohn Burger: turkey burger ("preferably from Barney's in San Francisco") with red onion, tomato and mayo. ("Don't forget the fries.")
read the interviewThe Mo Willems Burger: Fresh and well-grounded ("like my daughter") with nothing on it.("I am deathly afraid of most condiments.")

The Melissa Kantor Burger: Melted blue cheese with lettuce, tomatoes, and onions on the side. ("with a complimentary pack of 'Trident Blue' so you could eat all the onions").

read the interviewThe Stephenie Meyer Burger: another completely plain burger. ("I'm anti-condiments.")
read the interviewThe Janet Fitch Burger: a burger with a hole in the middle, stuffed with something dark, like olives. ("There's always a certain darkness at the center of my books.")
read the interviewThe Tanya Lee Stone Burger: medium rare with cheddar cheese, barbecue sauce, and an onion ring. "Overdone thick-cut fries on the side, please."
read the interviewThe Maureen Johnson Burger: veggie burger with roasted red pepper, avocado, and Monterrey Jack. Pickles on the side. "And all the condiments in the house.
