Hello I'm Gabrielle! I used to think I hated young adult, but after reading a few good ones I realized that I do enjoy reading this genre. Now I'm happy to say that I love reading young adult.

message 576: by Christy (new)

Christy | 7 comments Well hello there! My name is Christy and lately, all I have done is read. I go through reading phases quite often and right now I am at my peak. I just moved to a new area and haven't yet gone to the library, so I pretty much live at the bookstore. I looooove all the posts this group puts up!

message 580: by Lynda (new)

Lynda Engler (lyndaengler) | 2 comments I’m Lynda Engler and I’m working on my next novel, a YA speculative fiction novel called “Out of Ewr� and I want to connect with people who read the genre. Yes, I want to pick your brain! (But not eat it! there are some zombie-like creatures in “Out of Ewr� who MIGHT want to eat your brain though!)

You can check out my ŷ author page @ http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/....

Please send a friend request or follow me. I'm enjoying meeting so many people on ŷ and can't wait to get involved in the monthly discussions here.

Wonderful to meet you all.

Hi everyone!

I just joined this group and wanted to introduce myself. I love to read and I’m also a published author. And I read about 3 books a month. Also, I love discovering new writers! I LOVE YA books! :-D

Which are your favorites in this genre? Any good books featuring zombies or witches as recommendations?

Happy reading,
Sherry

Beautifully Broken

Welcome Sherry! I have heard good things about Rot & Ruin (Benny Imura, #1) by Jonathan Maberry . I love dystopian YA and just normal everyday stories (general fiction I guess).

Brigid ✩ | 2471 comments Mod
Ooh yes, I love Rot & Ruin. The author is a cool guy, too. I was in a chat with him on Twitter the other night. Anyway, hmmm other zombie books. Well, I really liked The Reapers Are the Angels. And I liked The Forest of Hands and Teeth somewhat, but I feel like I'm in the minority and most people hate that book ... Otherwise I haven't read a whole lot of zombie books. I've heard that Feed is really good but I haven't read that one yet; it's on my Kindle, though. ;)

Karolina | 15 comments Hey everyone! Just joined the group and wanted to say hi! I've been reading a lot of YA lately and really loved it. Just because it's marked YA doesn't mean us adult fan girls can't enjoy it right? Can't wait to discover more enjoyable reads.

Kristen (kristentaber) | 6 comments Welcome, Karolina! And I think YA, if it's written right, can and should be enjoyed by all ages. About half of my fans range in age from 35-60. I love that I get such a broad range of people emailing and posting about my books (and I read YA myself at age 35) :). Also, not to confuse you, in case you check out my ŷ name, I have another account under Kristen Taber that has my YA book on it (Aerenden: The Child Returns). One of these days I have to join my accounts. I can write and spend enough time immersed in the digital age, but I'm so technology challenged some days...lol.

Karolina | 15 comments Hi Kristen! Thanks, I'll definitely check it out.
