Alexia, I just had to add that YA is so prominent in the reading community, yet so *not* at the same time (especially for those who don't read much, regardless of their age). So many people are truly missing out, right? Which is why I love to spread the word about it every chance I get! Because YA rocks! ;) <3Jessica L.

I figure it doesn't matter what gets you reading, as long as you READ. Some of my favourite YA authors: Jessi Kirby, Stephanie Perkins, Sarah Dessen, Veronica Rossi, Katie McGarry, Huntley Fitzpatrick, Victoria Scwab, Morgan Matson, Sarah Mlynowski...I could go on forever. I'm discovering new authors all the time (I have a couple dozen books waiting on my shelves by authors I've never read), and I love how YA is constantly evolving and getting BETTER. It's an exciting time to be a YA fan (and writer)!SweetMarie83https://www.blogger.com/profile/12518239232924662332noreply@blogger.com
