The Challenge is over 1000 strong (amazing, huh?). Hosted by: Arlee Bird, Alex J Cavanaugh, Jen Daiker and Talli Rolland.For those who maybe haven't stopped by before, I'm doing a How Many Have You Read/Heard Contest. Each day will feature YA audiobooks I've listened to that have titles starting with that day's letter.
To enter, comment on which books you've read. Most will count as one entry. Older/more obscure books will count as two.
At the end of the month I'll draw names for several prizes including cool bookmarks, books, ARCs and a $10 Barnes and Noble gift certificate.

"A" and "The" don't count in the title, and I'm not using multiple titles in a series or author names unless I'm desperate.
Well, "S" must be my favorite letter since I have 16 books. So, instead of combining "S" and "T", I'll post "T" later tonight (Sunday).
Now, for S
Werewolf love never read so right. (worth one entry)
A female highwayman...I liked this one even more than her pirate one. (worth two entries)
Historical. Ghosts and photography. (worth two entries)
Best under-read Scott Westerfeld. (worth two entries)
Great writing. *spoiler alert* beware of ending. (worth two entries)
I love this book. There should be so many more free spirits in the world, especially in High School. (worth one entry)
Beautifully written. (worth two entries)
YA Dystopian. Boy protag struggling for more than a scavenger's life. (worth two entries)
My favorite Deb Caletti...I'm so jealous she got a story published that's more about the process of dating than the romance of it. (worth two entries)
If you like strong female protags, you should read this one. About a girl fighting supernaturals for her soul because of a deal she didn't even make. (worth two entries)
The books are (as usual) better than the movies...read them if you haven't yet. (worth one entry)
My favorite Meg Cabot series. About a girl who does more than ghost whisper, she kicks incorporeal ass...I know, by definition, that should be impossible, but it works. (worth one entry)
Cool series about a teen Necromancer coming into her powers. (worth one entry)
Another strong female protag. Another great "S" book. (worth two entries)
A boy fiction YA I just couldn't leave out. (worth two entries)
Finally, one of the best YA books of all time. (worth one entry...okay, two entries, just because it's so good)Phew! That's a lot of books. To enter, comment on which ones you've read. Come back later tonight for the "T" books...there are a lot of those too.
And feel free to add a comment later in the month if you read/listen to something because I mentioned it here.
Oh man! The only one I have actually read is Speak, but a lot of these are on my TBR pile. I must fix this problem...
