On a brilliant pre-LA Times Festival of Books night in LA, LDM's Adrian Todd Zuniga sat down with best-selling author and former Broadway dancer Tim Federle to discuss his young adult novels and his book Tequila Mockingbird. 

His bio: Tim Federle grew up in San Francisco and Pittsburgh before moving to New York to dance on Broadway. His debut novel for kids, Better Nate Than Ever was named a New York Times Book Review Notable Book of 2013 and a Best Book of the Year by Amazon, Publishers Weekly, and Slate.com. The sequel, Five, Six, Seven, Nate! was named a Best Book of 2014 by both the American Booksellers Association and Amazon.

Tim is also the author of the literary cocktail recipe book Tequila Mockingbird, which was voted the #1 Cookbook of 2013 on Goodreads (and was a clue on Jeopardy). His cocktail recipe guide for new parents, Hickory Daiquiri Dock, has been called "More fun at a baby shower than a Diaper Genie" by the Tampa Bay Times.
