Here at the YA Bookshelf, we review it all. The ones we like, the ones we don't, and the ones we want to take to a shredder. Updated at least once a week. We read mostly urban fantasy, science-fiction, and contemporary fiction, but we're always taking suggestions for new books.

La Voix de la Mort
Bio: I love three things: reading, writing, and snark. A few months ago I decided I needed a new hobby, so I started reviewing books. I mostly read YA paranormal, but I pick up a fantasy or paranormal romance book on occasion. I am more discerning and less forgiving, so I don't give 5 star ratings unless the book absolutely deserves it. My reviews often touch on more than just the story, and I end up criticizing the novel's tropes and their implications. My overall goal, however, is to entertain, and I still try to be funny even if I have nothing good to say.

The Library Lurker
Bio: Why buy books when you can get them from the library? I'm Taylor, a sixteen year old bibliophile with a passion for discussing books, but no one to do it with in real life. That's why I've turned to blogging. I'll read just about any YA, but I love historical fiction and contemporary fantasy.
