I think i have left you a link to my review, but I am new to blogging so let me know if I haven't.

Bookgeek said...

Sorry about Number 9. I clicked on it before entering the title of my review. Please ignore it with my apologies.

J. Kaye Oldner said...

Scrap girl ~ If you did, then you should see it up there.

Bookgeek ~ deleting is easy...no biggie :)

Amanda said...

J. Kaye,

If we end up reading more than 12, do you just want links to the first 12, or should we put in all our YA reviews?

J. Kaye said...

Amanda, I sent this by email, but want to post it here as a reference for others.

If you want to keep linking your reviews, that would be great! This way, I can read more reviews and continue to add to my wish list...lol! :)

Amanda said...

Cool! I'm not there yet obviously, haha, but just in case, since you're hosting so many of my challenges this year, I thought I'd ask.

Scrap girl said...

No Mr Linky showing, so here is my review.

Still can't work out how to link it directly without Mr Linky.

Book Dragon said...

The Warrior Heir


I think I did this correctly....

J. Kaye said...

Scrap girl, Book Dragon, chris ~ I have your links added to Mr. Linky who seems to finally be working again. Yippee!

Becky said...

J. Kaye--I accidentally left my Heretic Queen review link on the wrong Mr. Linky. Could you remove this one? Thanks!

Jess said...

J. Kaye I just posted my book review :) YAYY!

Josette said...

Wow, so many reviews to YA books that I don't know where to start! Anyway, I just finished my first YA book of the year: the 3rd book in the Gemma Doyle trilogy. :)

Elizabeth said...

It's great to have all these links! I especially love reading reviews that disagree with my own.

I think I did it right, but Blogging is new to me, too.
Hi, Scrap girl, I'm new @ this like you : ).

The Voracious Reader said...

I left a link to my review, hope I did it right!

Kathy said...

i have read several books so far this year to fit this group. I have a link to it so reviews can be read there. I think this is what I am supposed to do! lol

J. Kaye said...

Kathy ~ For this page, you like your review page to the Mr. Linky widget above. For the name, post the title of the book.

Molly @ bookhopping ~ Did you want me to add your links to the Mr. Linky widgets?

Cherylynne said...

Half of my reviews seem to be on one page, and the other half seem to be on the other...not really sure how I did that, sorry if I messed up somehow!

Miss.BookWorm said...

New review!

Windy said...

I'm a natural blonde - I put my name instead of the book title in the Mr Linky thing, can it be corrected to Wicked Lovely or should I redo it?

Jess said...

I put the wrong URL in the first time. Please remove number 470, :( my bad!

J. Kaye said...

Jess & Windy ~ No biggie! Easy to fix.

Jess said...

Thanks Jaye Kay!

I'm now 10/12 book reviews. I'm almost done. *cheer*

Woo! Finished! Of course, I'll keep reading YA books the rest of the year too - I have a couple checked out right now. Love this challenge :)

tea said...

I'm still having fun while reading for the YA challenge. This is so much fun.

Teddyree said...

Posted review for Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson. Woohoo no 11 in this challenge but I'm not stopping at 12, I love the YA genre.

Becca said...

Not the first book I've finished for the challenge but the first review I've done. Maze in the Heart of the Castle by Dorothy Gilman.

Becca said...

Okay, another review. I don't write all that many reviews so another one so soon is quite an accomplishment for me and I just had to share.

J. Kaye said...

Becca ~ If you don't wish to write reviews, you don't have to. Just a wrap up post at the end when you are done is all that's needed.

J. Kaye said...

Tammy ~ Congratulations! Don't forget to post on the completed list page!

Teddyree said...

Posted review for a YA fantasy novel Long Night Dance by Betsy James

Tea said...

I posted a review of "Lost." It's a Graphic YA. I hope the link came out right. I'm a bit nervous.

Tea said...

I had about ten review written. I didn't know how to link until J. Kaye taught me. This is why I might have a lot coming in at one time.

teakettle58@yahoo.com

J. Kaye said...

Tea ~ That's fine. Some find it easier to link it all in one sitting. :)

Tea said...

Ok, J. Kaye. Don't know what I would do without your help. You're a help to everybody.

Tea said...

I lost Mr. Linky. Here is another review.

Jazmin's Notebook by Walter Dean Myers

Tea said...

To read twelve books I need to read three more books. I have 9+3=12.
Just checking my arithmetic. Counting is my worse enemy.(:

teakettlet58@yahoo.com

Teddyree said...

Book 13 woohoo can't believe I've finished this challenge but I'm going to keep posting. I love this challenge so much, I want to do it all over again!
Oops and the book is Coraline by Neil Gaiman

Will have to get my post done for completed list :-)

J. Kaye said...

Teddyree - Congratulations! Lots of others are doing the same. Even though I am done, I've read many more...love YA!

Jo said...

I've linked to the reviews that were on my blog. I have reviews (nothing special - brief comments and thoughts) for the other YA books I've read on eHarlequin. Should I link to those too? Either way is fine with me.

J. Kaye said...

Jo ~ Linking is optional. You don't have to do this if you don't wish to.

Becca said...

Book number 10. Almost there.

Teddyree said...

Review is up for Dancing with Ana by Nicole Barker. A very quick, touching read.

shaunesay said...

Wow that's a lot of books, Thanks again for hosting all these challenges J. Kaye!

Tea said...

I am going to wrap up my teen challenge in Mr. Linky. Hope it goes alright.

mariel said...

Yikes, just linked to 10 of my reviews! Only two more to write...
