I find myself staring at the sand in the
that is my twenties, slowly slipping away and getting closer to thirty.
My grown up reads seemed to be a
, and whenever I tried to pick up something new
I always felt like it tended to be
, heavy on the sloppy.
I felt like a
of literary destruction.
So I decided to try something new,
and
adult lit for young adult lit.
Before I knew it, a
was lit within me and a new love burned. I had developed Young Adult Fever!
Once I had
under the YA spell,
I searched for books I could be
with, ones that would cause immense
over my strong love of them.
And also, maybe I was just
, but somehow YA boys are just so much dreamier.
I think my friends
would agree, too.
of books I want to read now cause me to have
of excitement!
of YA books is immense, inciting so many new readers.
Now that YA lit is part of the mainstream society,
will not longer be the same.

Came over to this page because of your top-ten page. Very fun, clever way of showing your love of YA fiction. There’s a lot more whimsy and freedom in YA fiction, something that gets lost in the over-seriousness and bleakness that adult fiction tends to absorb.
Awesome. I just discovered this blog. Coolest way to talk about why you love YA; by using YA book titles!
OK this is the cutest thing ever! I had something similar given to me in high school using candy bars. <3
