Crazy for Young Adult Books discussion

Has there ever been a time when you really wanted to do a challenge but couldn't find books that will fit into the guidelines? And then you have to drop out of the challenge? Well then this new folder is for you!

You create your own discussion. For example mine would look like this: Jacquelyn's Challenge Help!" Here you can post what challenge you need help with (make sure to post the guidelines as well
!) and then people can comment and help you find books that will work so that you can participate in that challenge!

I don't know if you've checked there already, but that's all of the books that Goodreads has categorized as set in Oregon. Otherwise, maybe try to find a book about road tripping that has a stop in Oregon?

oh my gosh Thank you!!! I'd found a different list but not this one!! Woohoo!! :) thanks!!!

I'm glad you're liking this, Trisha! Thanks a ton Ally for helping out! I've never read a book based in Oregon. Maybe I'll read If I Stay because I really want to read that one:D

Okay! help please!!!
I'm looking for 2 books for This and That challenge:

1. Western

2. YA Spiritual or religious

Please help!! :D hoping for recommendations!!!

1. (I heard it is a fun one) (I loved this one)

2. (about churches and religion)

Need recommendation for a book with handicapped hero

I did - main character is deaf.

this is also a REALLY good list:

like one legged hero.

Oh, looks like lots of people chose Cinder!! She does struggle with her...um, foot :)

You know, this one is really good, even if it's juvenile/ya: Rules The synopsis will let you know what you're working with disability wise

But I also found one about a girl learning to walk again after losing a leg: The Running Dream

wow thanks so much :) All 3 sound interesting :D Thanks again. You are very helpful :)

UGH!!! Help help help please!

LOL

I need a book with a person that has the name

Destiny

anyone doing the Scavenger hunt is with me here! None of us have the name checked off.

So far the books I've found don't interest me...

&

Does anyone know of any others?!?! I'd love some help!

Thx!

I haven't found that name in any of the books I've read so far. I'll look up books with the name Destiny, and I'll let you know what I find. (:

lol I think I may be driven to read lol

Thank you! any help would be so appreciated!

LOL Trisha! I'll try to find a book you like. I wouldn't want you to have to resort to read that. :P

Guys, I need brown cover books to complete my Colorful Year Challenge.

Thanks Trisha :)

I'm sure there's more :D but that's a few

I only need 3, so this is more that enough :)

Anyone know of any good contemporary YA books, with titles starting with K or Y? Thanks!

Y:


All the titles of the books in the Scarlett Wakefield series start with K.

Thank you!!

I was thinking of making a challenge but wasn't sure if there was many international books. (:

is also a really good one that doesn't take place in the US! Can't believe I forgot it.

Oh yeah, New Beijing :D

Mandiann wrote: " is also a really good one that doesn't take place in the US! Can't believe I forgot it."

Awesome!

And the sequel is set in what was France.

A few more outside of US:

13 Little Blue Envelopes
Clockwork Angel
The Forest of Hands and Teeth
Defiance

Wow, you guys are so awesome!

I always thought the forest of hands and teeth was set in what was once the US. The description of the area sounds like the US, especially in books 2 and 3.

Cool!! :D

I am still thinking of how to set it up..

I was thinking of another idea for the Themed Rreading Challenges. The Game of Life!

But I don't have a game and it's been a really really long time since I played it, so I wouldn't know where to begin a suggestion on an outline for it.

But I think that would be a cool challenge! :D

I feel like Gisbelle made a challenge for that game but it never came through or something...

And I have an idea! I am working on it now!
