For those fellow Nerdfighters (DFTBA), John Green’s ‘Looking for Alaska’ just hit the NYT Bestseller List almost 6 years after publication for the first time.
So Flavorwire released their 10 Greatest YA Series of All Time…see what you think. My verdict is WHAT?
Maureen Johnson was the triumphant winner of the Queen of Teen UK Crown…why don’t we do this in the US? (I totally voted for her…love MJ!)
Thought the ARC controversy was over? Well, YA author Elizabeth Fama definitely made a few of her own thoughts about ARCs very well known.
You all know me (Stephanie) well enough to know that I advocate strongly for LGBTQ novels. One of my fav authors, Malinda Lo, wrote an article for the Huffington Post about ‘10 LGBTQ Young Adult Novels to Make it Better‘. Check it out!
Fan of Marie Lu’s novel Legend? She stopped by to talk with MTV at Comic Con about how the filming was going for the movie adaptation.
