Adbooks is a group of people of all ages. Our purpose is to discuss books written for adolescents and young adults (YA). Our members include teachers, parents, librarians, students, writers, and others. In addition to informally swapping recommendations and discussing topics related to books, reading, and teaching, we read and discuss selected books together, and sponsor an annual book award, the JHunt. Our atmosphere is warm, supportive, inclusive, and stimulating. We welcome new members of all ages and backgrounds.
Please join us for our 2011 JHunt book discussion. Here is the shortlist:

Anya's Ghost by Vera Brosgol
