It's sometimes a bit hard to believe that with all the debut authors and new literature out there, people have never read tried-and-trues from the "experts" in the genre!Steph Suhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09834692034486125015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1214401809446305406.post-79656882671386376692009-04-13T06:20:00.000-04:002009-04-13T06:20:00.000-04:00I am glad so many people enjoyed my post.

When I try to tell people that Lloyd Alexander had I much bigger influence on my writing, they generaly say "Who's that?"Ethan Rosehttp://www.christineandethanrose.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1214401809446305406.post-84435865271025207312009-04-12T20:21:00.000-04:002009-04-12T20:21:00.000-04:00Thanks for stopping by Nora, Taylor, & prophec...Thanks for stopping by Nora, Taylor, & prophecygirl!

What would people say are the books that "define" the YA genre? I think that might be a tough question to answer because of the breadth of the books that full under the YA label, but interesting all the same.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the great post!Norahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10729296936333356418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1214401809446305406.post-83320589562110022862009-04-12T19:32:00.000-04:002009-04-12T19:32:00.000-04:00Nice post! :) Love "Lord of the Rings" , and it is...Nice post! :) Love "Lord of the Rings" , and it is definitely a trilogy legacy. :) That is definitely something to shoot for as I'm taking a step into the literary world....<BR/>Thanks for the post again!! :)<BR/><BR/>God bless,<BR/>Taylor J.
