Books With Teen Appeal

When I read a YA book that I KNOW will appeal to teen readers, I make sure and review and blog it. This blog is not about award winning books or books that adults want teens to read. It is about TEEN and tween and sometimes younger readers, and sometimes it's about technology. From the best books of the year to the best livestreaming app, you'll find it here.

I Write a YA Novels Review Column in The El Paso Times

I Love YA Novels

Welcome to Young Adult Books Blog

Welcome all friends/readers to this blog. It is my aim to read and review what is the best and newest in YA and MG fiction and now picture books!

I am happy to read and review what other readers recommend. Advance reader copies from publishers are always welcome. Please see my Blog and Review policy page for details.

I like to sponsor book giveaways and will likely post new book giveaways. Check postings for current book giveaways. My reviews also appear on A Book and A Hug website at http://www.abookandahug.com/

I am a reviewer for School Library Journal, VOYA and a member of Escape Hatch and Quokka Crew, two very seriously funny writers' groups.

I have been a Cybils judge for eight years judging the best in YA fiction and YA speculative fiction, middle grade fiction, board books and picture books.

When not reading, blogging, reviewing or writing, you will find me on a beach somewhere...any beach!

About Me

Pamela Thompson: I am a YA librarian, reviewer, blogger, newspaper columnist and writer. This is a picture of my buddy Beaudacious! Isn't he beautiful? I review Advance Reader Copies for publisher. If I receive a book from a publisher, I put the disclaimer on the review. I love YA lit and read as many new books as I can. I like to be able to recommend books that I have read and enjoyed. Kids love when I recommend a book just for them! And it gets a conversation going about books. My reviews are shared on a book website developed by a fellow librarian at A Book and a Hug. My blog is now a featured blog of the Texas Library Association. This blog was awarded High School Blog of the Year 2012 by the Texas Library Association. Chair, District 6, Texas Library Association 2014 Mentor Librarian 2011 Texas Library Association Mentor Librarian 2011 YALSA, ALA (American Library Association) Give the gift of reading to every child you know. It will change your life and make the world a better place!
