A YA Book Blog. Because who can afford books in this economy? I rate a book based on five categories: Characters, Plot, Originality, Writing, and Ending.

The Black and White Reader. Truthful reviews of YA fiction, anticipated book releases, and the occasional post on my life. Wednesday, August 24, 2011. I'm extremely behind on reviews, not to mention reading, right now, due to the fact that my senior year just started and I'm swamped with schoolwork. I promise to post everything as soon as possible but there's a strong likelihood that my posts will become even more sporadic than they usually are. My apologies, and keep reading!
