Does it count as "reading" if I'm reading teen books?

Day 8: Not including blogging ;) my favorite guilty pleasure...

I loved the Hunger Games.

I stumbled upon the first book in 2009 and then had to WAIT for each subsequent book. Everyone else I knew had a Hunger Games weekend - where they were able to curl up with the trilogy and enjoy it from beginning to end.

This summer I have been trying so hard to find another young adult series that sucked me in like the hunger games did...

In my quest I have read many, many teen books recently. Perhaps more than I care to admit! There is now a proliferation of them, some probably due to the popularity of The Hunger Games. Though some were written concurrently. None have pulled me in quite like Hunger Games, but a few game close...I did enjoy the first book in all the series listed below. Apparently there is now a genre called Teen Dystopian Novels - what? Yep, my guilty pleasure is teen books about screwed up worlds!

Some of my favorites in the last few months...
1. The Selection - Kiera Cass
2. Divergent - Veronica Roth
3. Starters - Lissa Price
4. Matched - Ally Condie
5. The Maze Runer - James Dashner

Enjoy...and please let me know if you have any suggestions for me!
