A fabulous blog of YA lit reviews, journal article reviews, and author highlights, written by a middle school teacher (who is also an aspiring librarian!).
1. All the Cool Kids - and Grown Ups! - Are Doing It

I'm blaming my summer hiatus, but I just discovered the New York Times essay about how "the Harry Potter generation has grown up," and is still hooked on YA literature.

What's not to love? If you're one of the doubters who question why "grown ups" are spending so much time reading YA, please do yourself a favor and pick up a copy of The Hunger Games, Shiver, The Knife of Never Letting Go, or Jellicoe Road. You'll be sorry you waited so long to see what the hype's all about!
