YA Book Battle!


Alyssa - not me, another blogger who is awesome! - @ The Shady Glade is having a YA Bloggers Debut Battle which starts today! What is it, you ask? Here's the scoop. I think it will be loads of fun!

The YA Bloggers Debut Book Battle is a bracket-style judging contest to pick the best nominated debut work published in the last year (and a little bit of 2010).
Here's how it will work:

Nominations are made and after they close, the books will be narrowed down and fit into brackets for our lovely volunteer judges to read. Starting in late April each judge will read two books and choose a winner. One will move on, one will not. It will all come down to two books in a epic book battle to choose the best!

Doesn't that sound like fun? Here's the final list and how it is bracketed for the battle. She even did a video!
