Resource Thursdays: Reviewer X

June 11th, 2009

It’s summer around these parts, which means that I’m in the middle of compiling a  summer reading list.  I’m trying to be organized this year and get things at Half.com, instead of my normal hunt and peck strategy at the bookstore.  That being said, one of my favorite places to gather YA book ideas is at Reviewer X.

Run by high school student Stephanie, this site has tons of book reviews.  Since she’s a young adult writing about reading YA (whew!) the feedback is actually from the target audience.  Yay!!!  Stephanie is frank about what she likes and doesn’t like in a book, which makes her reviews well-rounded and honest.  Her blog also features publishing stores and some publishing industry news, so her site is a must.  Go check it out and let me know if you find any gems for your summer reading list!

Stephanie is also currently running a contest to win Eyes Like Stars, so check it out here, and read about Lisa Mantchev’s publishing story!
