Like you, I'm well...You make excellent points! Like you, I'm well past my young adult years and just adore the books in this catagoriztion. I'm a huge Hunger Games fan as well and would recommend it to anyone who is on the fense about reading YA, it is, in fact, what got me into the genre.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07965647842119649711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1881225265485113863.post-19795696646947046872010-08-02T21:28:22.765-05:002010-08-02T21:28:22.765-05:00I know, I know....I *need* to read these books bef...I know, I know....I *need* to read these books before Mockingjay comes out later this month. And I promise: they are at the top of my pile. <br /><br />There are so many great YA books out there.
