2009 Young Adult Book Challenge

J. Kaye is hosting a young adult book challenge. Yes, I know I shouldn’t get overloaded on challenges since I’m just starting off but there are quite a few YA books that I have been wanting to read so I figured why not.
Guidelines for 2009 Young Adult Book Challenge
1. Anyone can join. You don’t need a blog to participate.
2. Read 12 Young Adult novels. No need to list your books in advance. You may select books as you go. Even if you list them now, you can change the list if needed.
3. Challenge begins January thru December, 2009.
4. You can join anytime between now and December 31, 2009.
Go here to sign up.

Hey, I’ll do this challenge! I’m about to start The Sweet Far Thing myself.
I’d be interested to hear your thoughts on the latter two Vampire Academy books; I’ve been using the series as a bit of a punching bag over on my blog.

Elizabeth, I just read your posting and agree with some of your comments but I still loved the series
