Confessions of a YA Junkie: Kristina

Our little “Casting Call” feature has allowed us to get to know five other YA lovers and chat with them about everything from what books they’re reading to the importance of watching “Friday Night Lights.” Kiki is, hands down, our most take-charge member. She’s smart and focused and can whip up a spreadsheet like it’s an…

Confessions of a YA Junkie: Joanne Albano

One of the best things about Facebook is the fact that you can reconnect with old friends.  I was so surprised one day when one of my old friends  posted the winners of the YALSA awards on her Facebook page.  This resulted in our chatting with each other and realizing that we both love YA…

Confessions of a YA Junkie: Candice from The Grown-Up YA

Our newest YA Junkie is a fellow blogger and teen lit aficionado, Candice. She’s one of the most thoughtful, thorough YA book bloggers we’ve ever come across, and she writes about deep cultural issues in addition  to which fictional boys she finds swoon-worthy.

Confessions of a YA Junkie: Alex

We met Alex on Twitter, where we knew she’d make a perfect YA Junkie. Now that’s we’ve read her submission, she’s clearly a kindred spirit, because anyone who loves Jonah Griggs is a friend of ours! Name, if you’re out about your addiction:  Alejandra Marisol but Alex works too. Or Mary, that seems to be…

Confessions of a YA Junkie: Cara Blevins

This week our YA Junkie is our very own contributor, Cara. We discovered our mutual love of Young Adult literature via Twitter, where we found ourselves discussing our shared love of “Harry Potter,” Kristin Cashore, and pretty much any teen-lit book or author the other mentioned. She’s gorgeous and funny and generally awesome, so we…
