The worth of a book is to be measured by what you can carry away from it.

What is it?
There are book blogs everywhere. But not so many that just do "young adult". Adolescent Lit is one of the most entertaining, under-appreciated but promising, growing genres out there. A lot of new stuff is coming out and I am reading it.
I am NOT a professional writer. I am NOT a professional reviewer. I am NOT a professional anything in relation to books or publishing or whatever.
I am a reader.

Books can be dangerous. The best ones should be labeled "This could change your life." ~Helen Exley

Stuff I Find and Need to Share with the Class
The things I have learned and remembered have come from novels, before a textbook. You will be amazed what you can learn from reading something fun.
Ye Olde Disclamer
I have no interest in reading "Good Literature". I want to lose myself in a book. Books are judged on how much I enjoyed them. I make no guarantees. Make your own choices, and read at your own risk.
Urban Fantasy and Science Fiction are my preferred lit of choice at this time. ;)
My books come from Amazon.com, unless otherwise indicated.
