Christine: When I first picked up Tyger, Tyger, I thought it would be a children’s book because of the cover and the summary’s mention of goblins. Goblins seem more like a children’s plot, don’t they? Maybe I’m just too used to seeing faeries in every other book. Caitlin: To be fair, what this author calls…

As you might be able to tell from the Featured Authors section, I worship the ground Melina Marchetta walks on. She can do no wrong in my eyes. So, when a friend was going to Australia for Christmas I asked politely (read: DEMANDED) she bring me back a copy of the Piper’s Son. And then…

So, every Sunday, I love reading/watching  the dozens of IMM posts across the YA blogosphere. I’m not sure why, but I love seeing what people got in the mail and finding new books to look out for hearing people talk about the books they are excited to read. But I have never participated. Why? Because…

Angel books and dystopian novels seem to be my current weak spot. Although, based on the number of these being published right now, I don’t think I’m the only one with this weak spot. Wither was a dystopian. But it didn’t have to be. It could have been written as a fantasy, or as a…

This was so….I don’t even know if there is a word for it. Parts of it were beautiful, parts of it were ugly, and parts of it were uncomfortable. I’m not even sure I would classify it as YA. I got it from the YA section, and it is about two teenagers, but the style…

The buzz for this book was astronomical. It was all over twitter and facebook and the vast majority of book blogs. Or at least the ones I visit. There was all this potential swag to be won, a super cool contest on the author’s blog just before Christmas and secret project to have book blogs…

You’re probably going to be seeing a lot of these posts today. It’s sort of like a launch party, but online and with no snacks. Unless you’re like me and you’re eating some left over chocolate from Christmas. Yum. But we didn’t come here to talk about chocolate. Nope. We came here to talk about…

The Cursed Book. Although, not because of anything written in the book. No, this book is cursed because it took me over a month to have five minutes with it. On November 23rd, it occurred to me that Canadian bookstores had been stupid recently, so I decided to order the book in. It was released…

When amateur writer Christie settles in the artist alley of her first ever anime convention, she sees it only as an opportunity to promote the manga she had started with her artist boyfriend. But when she unexpectedly falls for a mysterious cosplayer, things become very complicated. Because what do you do when you fall in…

Unless you’ve been living in a hut, sequestered from civilization for the past year, you’ve probably  heard of the Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead. The series finale, Last Sacrifice, just came out a few weeks ago and I was lucky enough to meet Richelle Mead on her book tour. …But more on that later. Right now I…
