Lauree Waldrop | 2 comments HI my name is Lauree. I read just about anything I can get my hands on but the YA genre is at the top of my favorites. I am also the author of two young adult paranormal romance books, Betrayed and Primitive Instincts.

message 1303: by Amy (new)

Amy Ellis (amyellis) My name is Amy. I'm 22 but I'm really hung up on YA Literature (took a children's lit minor in college as well so I can be legit!). My favorite books are The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Looking for Alaska, and way too many more. I don't really have a favorite author but I'll read anything by John Green and I'm obsessed with Walt Whitman.

message 1308: by Michele (new)

Michele Bernhard | 2 comments Hi,

My name is Michele, and the majority of what I read right now is YA. I'm a HS English teacher, and I started reading YA so that I could recommend good books to my students and discuss books with them. While I'd say The Hunger Games is my favorite book, I just read Hush and was very impressed by it, so it is my "favorite" of the moment (although Hunger Games will always be tops for me).

message 1310: by T.L. (new)

T.L. Costa | 2 comments Hi guys!
My name is Tracy and I love to read YA. Well, I read everything, really, but YA definitely has a lot of virtual shelf-space on my Kindle.

Favorite author? Wow. Um, too many to name, really. But if I had to pick from YA favs it would probably be Patrick Ness, John Green and Suzanne Collins.

Favorite books? Hmmm... my most recent favorite book is GONE GIRL. I've never had a book straight-up punk me like that. Loved it. But I've also recently read the NIGHT CIRCUS and that one was fantastic, too. YA-wise, I read Huntley Fitzpatrick's MY LIFE NEXT DOOR and just adored pretty much everything about it.

And full-disclosure here, I am an author who writes YA, too. So be warned, I can talk YA for HOURS and HOURS ;)

message 1315: by Anu (new)

Anu (mewmymew) Hello! My name is Anu and I'm a book addict. I could read all day every day. I even study literature in uni. But favourite book? I don't even know how to choose. I think Cbosky was ´right when he wrote that “I have finished To Kill a Mockingbird. It is now my favorite book of all time, but then again, I always think that until I read another book.” in The Perks of Being a Wallflower. I feel like that too.
