Stephenie Updates Her MySpace and adds The Host playlist

Stephenie updated her MySpace today talking about her upcoming tour legs.

"Texas, Arizona, Utah, and a playlist
Current mood: chill

It took me a few days to catch up on lost sleep, which is why I didn’t update right after my Texas signings (also, I had a book report to "help" my 5th grader with. "We" better get an A because it ROCKS). So, to recap, Texas was awesome. I got to meet a lot of cool people and there were even a few old friends in the line, which was a nice surprise. Frisco got a little hectic, due to the fact that I had a plane to catch, but everyone was very nice about it, and I’m sure you’ll all be relieved to know that I did catch my plane and made it home for Mother’s Day.

Tonight, I have my hometown event with Changing Hands. I’m hoping to see a lot of familiar faces. (You know who you are.)

Now that The Host has been out for a week, I’m also looking forward to some new, challenging Q&A questions. I’m pretty sure that Utah won’t disappoint me there.

Finally–a bit tardy, sorry–I did get my The Host playlist up on my website. I noticed that there is a lot of Linkin Park and Nine Inch Nails. It’s funny how some bands (and not always the ones you expect) express your theme so clearly in so many different ways. (Nine Inch Nails–experience with aliens? There’s just not enough evidence to make a determination at this point.)"  *

    Linkin Park is my all time fave band so when I saw them listed I had a huge grin plastered to my face. I then tried to match up certain songs to The Host.
