Hey! It's Friday and you know what that means-it's time for the book blogger hop! I absolutely love this, I've found so many great blogs over the process. Hop on over to Crazy for Books and join in! Oh and if you're visiting make sure to let me know, so I can return the favor! I'm also joining in on Parajunkee's Follow Friday, so check that out as well :)
To answer this week's question, my favorite new to me author this year would be...well I was introduced to some amazing authors this year so I'm going to choose three. First I would pick Lauren Oliver for her wonderful novel Before I Fall. After reading that I'm confident I'll love anything else she'll write. Morgan Matson who wrote Amy & Roger's Epic Detour would be next to make the list. And lastly I would have to say Kimberley Darling for writing The Body Finder.
I'm hopping over to say hi! Lauren Oliver is such a sweetheart. When I met her at BEA she was running out of time but she took pictures with me anyway :)
I hope you're having a great Friday and an even better weekend. I'm visiting from the hop and just wanted to stop by and say hello.
I haven't read any of the authors you mentioned in your blog post for this week's question but holy goodness do I want to read each and everyone of them. I'll fix that soon, I promise.
Stopping by on the hop! I have heard so many good things about Before I Fall... I really need to check it out. I want to read The Body Finder too, it sounds good!
Your review of Amy & Roger's Epic Detour made me reserve it at the library ASAP. :) Stopping by to say hi, Sara! Hope you're having an AMAZING weekend :D
I have just discovered your blog. How wonderful! I am now a follower and look forward to reading more. Loved the three books that you mention in this post...great choices.
I also blog about YA books, and the books I am reading for the Best Fiction for Young Adults award. Would love your comments and feedback. I wish I could convince my students to start a blog like yours. Feel free to visit at http://evergreenjuniorhighlibrary.blogspot.com
I'm a seventeen year old Muslim girl living in Kentucky. Coming from a huge family, I tend to be a bit shy, but never afraid to speak my mind. Growing up without a TV in the house, I willingly turned to books. Ever since I've been a proud book-aholic. Since I love reading I decided to write a review on every book I read (mostly YA fiction) from here on out to share my thoughts and opinions. I love comments and am open to any book suggestions :)
Authors/publishers, I would love to review your books or host an interview! I read just about anything YA. You can contact me at: sarashalash174@gmail.com
Rating System
One Star: I strongly disliked it and would not recommend it to anyone. Stay away.
Two Stars: It was just OK. I would probably read it if there wasn't anything better to do.
Three Stars: I liked more things about the book then things that I disliked. I enjoyed the book, but I didn't fall in love with it.
Four Stars: After finishing the book I feel happy/excited. I really liked the book and would recommend it to others.
Five Stars: Not many books will receive five stars. The book had to be amazing. A five star book is a book that I wouldn't forget about, it stays with me long after I finished reading it.
