For the past few weeks, we have been celebrating all things YA with loads of reviews, interviews, guest posts and giveaways.
Now it is time to open the floor to YOU, so that you can be part of the party as well!
Over the course of the day, this post will be open to anyone with a blog to join in the fun. All you have to do is add your blog name (and the title of your post between parenthesis or at least an indication of what it is about!) and the url of your post in the form below and voila! All the posts will be listed here for everybody to read. Your post can be a review of a favorite oldie, a review of a new (or new to you) YA novel, a post reflecting on the genre, or even a piece on why you DON’T read YA. Anything at all…as long as it is about YA.
So, let’s get the party started!

August 15, 2010 at 8:24 amI’m sort of cheating by posting something I wrote a couple of weeks ago but I’ve been doing lot of YA reviews so I guess it still counts. Off to look at everyone else’s ones now!

August 15, 2010 at 8:46 amThanks for this opportunity to share my blog. I try to write spoiler free reviews that will help someone decide if they want to read the book or not. I am extremely new and green to the book blogging world. But I love books, and love other people who do to and this gives me a chance to communicate with so many. Thanks again! (also, your blog was one of the first I ever followed!)

August 15, 2010 at 8:57 amI have added my post! It ended up being TOO LONG (as my posts often do), so the book rec part will have to go up tomorrow…
YA rocks!

August 15, 2010 at 10:08 amGot mine done just in time! Was going to do it last night, but it was a long day of my very own “young adult-ness” with the kidlet lol. This is always a fun time in YAAM. Going to have a look-see at everyone elses posts throughout the day. Cheers, everyone. 😉

August 15, 2010 at 10:10 amHmm, just noticed that for some reason my link says Suite Scarlett Giveaway, when it was supposed to be Suite Scarlett AND Giveaway. Promise I’m not trying to spam yalls event! There’s a review, plus a giveaway. Sorry about that!

August 15, 2010 at 3:27 pmWow, this is the best day ever! I’m super excited that you guys are doing this. My review is older but I think people need to know about the book. Hope you like it! Now, I’m off to read other people’s reviews and articles 😀

August 15, 2010 at 9:21 pmWow — it’s been so long since I read anything written for “grown-ups” that I couldn’t decide on a post, so I just linked to my blog.
I review lots of graphic novels and fantasy, so enjoy!

August 16, 2010 at 8:26 amI linked to my last YA review of Clockwork Angel since I’m planning a giveaway later this week. And I have a Zombies VS. Unicorns review that I was sitting on (wanted to post closer to release date!) probably going up this week too.
