I loved so many of these, and Dessen never fails me. Great list!
It was hard to choose which one to feature of hers! She is definitely one on my auto-buy list! 🙂
#3 and #4 are favorites for me in YA. I wasn’t a big fan of #5, but I like her other books. Same with Anna. That one was the weak link for me in the series, but I don’t like cheating. Great list!
Sarah Dessen and Emery Lord are always wins for me! 🙂
I really want to get to Geekerella because the whole series sounds so cute!
I am looking forward to the next ones in the series! 🙂
I so love that list!!!!
Thanks, Sophie! 🙂
So many great choices! I feel like there wasn’t such a huge variety when I was a teen!
I normally don’t read romance, but a few of these have made it to my wishlist!
