Young Adult Book Reading Challenges discussion

Welcome to YA Book Club's fifth quarterly Reading Challenge!

Rules

Duration: March 1, 2012 - May 31, 2012.

We are a YA Book Club, so all books should be young adult.

You have 3 months to read 10 YA books that satisfy following requirements:

1) Read a book which was nominated for or won the William C. Morris award. This reward recognizes debut writers. Information about the award is here.

2) Read a book that is a new release published in March, April or May of 2012. Goodreads offers lists of the most popular new releases by month, they might help you to make your choices - March, April and May. (If you have difficulties obtaining these new books, you can read a release from the same months in 2011).

3) Read a book set with a cover that has something botanical on it - flowers, trees, grass, etc.

4) Read a book whose title starts with one of the letters of the word SPRING.

5) With the rise of the popularity of Australian authors, I think it is time for us all to read at least one YA book written by an author from Australia. Some titles here.

6) Read a book that involves traveling - a road trip, a trip or moving to another state, country or continent.

7) Read a book that is funny!

8) Read a book which has a character who is a fighter or warrior of some sort.

9) Read a book with a sick character - recovering from an injury, disabled, terminally ill, etc.

10) Read a book written by a male author.

The widget is all set up for you convenience. This thread is for all challenge communications.

Happy reading!

Here are my choices! Some of these have been sitting on my bookshelf for a while, it will be good to take a crack at them.


01: Beautiful Creatures
02: The Selection
03: Half-Blood
04: Silver Smoke
05: Eon: Dragoneye Reborn
06: How to Be Bad

I'm using this challenge to knock a few books off my tbr shelf (Coming of the Whirlpool, Finnikin of the Rock) and to catch up with a couple lent to me last year (Tender Morsels, The Third Day, The Frost). I'm probably stretching things with the botanical category (Before I Fall has a bit of out of focus grass on the cover!) but I really want an excuse to read it.
