YA Challenge

I read a lot of YA and children's books but most of the authors I read are either British or American. So I am working on a personal challenge to read more Canadian YA and children's books next year. Then I saw Joy had planned a YA Challenge for 2008. This should help me keep on track with my goal. All the books I've chosen are either by a Canadian author or take place in Canada

Rules: read 12 YA books in 2008

1. The Serpent's Spell by Rae Bridgman

2. Keturah and Lord Death by Martine Leavitt

3. The Aquanauts by John Lunn

4. Megiddo's Shadow by Arthur Slade

5. The Serpent's Egg by J. Fitzgerald McCurdy

6. Porcupine by Meg Tilly

7. Rex Zero and the End of the World by Tim Wynne-Jones

8. Johnny Kellock Died Today by Hadley Dyer

9. Up to Low by Brian Doyle

10. The Droughtlanders by Carrie Mac

11. The Canning Season by Polly Horvath

12. Airborn by Kenneth Oppel

  2. Hi Nicola,

    Great challenge to set yourself! Thought you may like to know that the sequel to "The Serpent's Spell" came out this past spring---"Amber Ambrosia." And the third book is due out in spring 2008!

    Happy reading!

    cheers, Rae Bridgman
