I think it's funny some of the books that are on this list. Some are "midgrade" and some *cough* The Host *cough* are actually adult books. I'm adding onto the list with books I think should be on there. There are a lot of books on here as well that I've never even heard of. Time for me to go look them up.
I think it would be cool if everyone who posted about this list would add onto it. Make it sort of a "must read" list for us YA lovers out there.

  1. I actually just posted about this, too. I love your idea of adding to the list. I loved Anna, and I think Divergent belongs on the list, too. Maybe I'll have to go back and update my post. :)

I love getting comments! I'm always checking to see if I have any new comments. It's actually pretty sad how often I check for them really. So if there is anything you want to say about a post of mine, please say it! I want feedback :)

As of lately, I'm making the blog a no-award blog. I love getting them and I'm always honored, but I don't have the time to do all the things that are required of them. Sorry :(
Also, my "reply" button does not seem to be working in my comments on my computer. I have to use a different computer to reply back so if I don't reply, it's not because I'm rude, it's just that I can't.
