Welcome to the YA Scavenger Hunt!
Welcome to the YA Scavenger Hunt!
You are hunting on
I'm Suzanne Lazear, I write about steampunk faeries. Welcome, have a cupcake.
You can start the hunt here or you can go to the YA Scavenger Hunt homepage to find out more or if you're stuck. There are TWO contests going on and you can enter one or both! I'm part of the BLUE TEAM--but there's red team as well, with a different set of signed books to win.
Collect the favorite numbers of all the authors on the blue team, and then add them up.Hint: the secret number is highlighted RED.
Once you've added up all the numbers, make sure you fill out the form here to officially qualify for the grand prize. Only entries that have the correct number will qualify.
Open internationally, anyone below the age of 18 should have a parent or guardian's permission to enter. To be eligible for the grand prize, you must submit the completed entry form by August 5, at noon Pacific Time. Entries sent without the correct number or without contact information will not be considered.
And now on to the author I'm hosting today:
Cynthia Hand is the author of the New York Times bestselling Unearthly trilogy with HarperTeen. A native of southeastern Idaho, she currently lives with her husband and two small children in Southern California, where she teaches writing at Pepperdine University. She has graduate degrees in creative writing from Boise State University and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Instead of a muse, Cynthia has a guardian angel named Buster. He wears a Stetson in place of a halo, prefers a beat-up pickup truck to flying, and loves to correct Cynthia's grammar.
For months part-angel Clara Gardner trained to face the raging forest fire from her visions and rescue the alluring and mysterious Christian Prescott from the blaze. But nothing could prepare her for the fateful decisions she would be forced to make that day, or the startling revelation that her purpose—the task she was put on earth to accomplish—is not as straightforward as she thought. Now, torn between her increasingly complicated feelings for Christian and her love for her boyfriend, Tucker, Clara struggles to make sense of what she was supposed to do the day of the fire. And, as she is drawn further into the world of part angels and the growing conflict between White Wings and Black Wings, Clara learns of the terrifying new reality that she must face: Someone close to her will die in a matter of months. With her future uncertain, the only thing Clara knows for sure is that the fire was just the beginning.

Thanks for the contest.
(Aeromech332003@yahoo.com)
I would choose Slide because I've heard some fantastic things about it.
dragonzgoil at gmail dot com
I haven't read any of them, so I think I'd pick Forbidden because I'm always looking for more forbidden things.
I would pick Embrace because I've heard so many good things about it!
Blood coven for me!
Slide. Because I have all the others.
Embrace definitely! Because aside from it's an awesome book about angels, Jessica is also part of YA Scavenger Hunt. Supporting all the authors!!!
Thanks! :*
Carmel L.
Thanks for this awesome giveaway!!!
I would be happy with any of the books but if I had to choose probably Embrace because it sounded good and I already have Firelight :). Natasha WArd
Shattered Dreams
I think I'd choose either Slide, Embrace or Abandon.
I'd want Embrace!! I've wanted to read that one for sooo long!! Thanks for the giveaway!! :D
Slide because I don't have it yet.
Oh Gosh, they all sound awesome! But I'd probably pick the one by Tera Lynn Childs :)
I would choose Embrace because I really want to read more angel books.
Rebecca on RC
Hmmm tough call, but I would probably choose Abandon. Thanks for the giveaway!! =)
Forbidden or Embrace
I've read some of these already, but not these two. I looked the ones I haven't read up on Goodreads and these two stuck out the most. I was grabbed just from their summaries!
Thanks for the extra chance at a give-a-way! I can't wait to read your book!!! I still have the bookmark you sent me on my swag board :D
If I won I'd choose Forbidden. It looks really interesting!
Slide since I loved it so much and want a finished copy for the future classroom library.
I would pick firelight by Sophie Jordan because these day all the popular teen fiction books are about vampires, witches, angels, or werewolves. And believe me I love most of them. But, at the same time a plot about a teenager who transforms in a dragon really holds its own as a story.
Embrace by Jessica Shirvington because it sounds great. It's actually been on my to-read list for awhile now but I haven't had a chance to buy it. Winning a copy would be a great way to get reading it!
I would most likely pick Firelight because I love this series and would love to have Firelight.
i would choose : embrace coz i love this cover,,
thanks for the giveaway
I would pick Slide by Jill Hathaway because the cover is purple and I would totally love to read the book!
Thanks for the giveaway! =D
I would choose shattered dreams
Thank you so much for the giveaway
I would choose firelight because it looks cool!
I'd pick Embrace by Jessica Shirvington because I read the synopsis and I think it sounds like a really interesting book.
I'd pick Firelight. I have no idea what it's about but I like the title.
Can not wait to read your books!!! Glad for the hunt found so new authors
My choose would be The Bloodcoven Vampires Vol 1. I've heard alot about the series and its on my TBR pile
I will choose any of them... but if I have to pick one I will most likely choose Embrace. :) !
I'd choose Slide because it sounds interesting and something different to read.
You always seem to have great books to giveaway Suzanne!!
I've been wanting to read Embrace for ages,and all the books in this series have amazing covers!
Thanx for being in the YASH again!
I have no idea What I'd pick :P
Love to win some of your books!!!
Id choose forbidden because it sounds dangerous already! ahh soo excited.
I would choose Slide by Jill Hathaway, because I have heard amazing things :)
Thanks for this giveaway!
Slide! Most definitely Slide!!
Ive want led to read slide
embrace from what I can see
I would love to win Embrace, the synopsis alone pulls me in (and the cover as well, its gorgeous XD). I love stories with Angels in them.
I would choose Embrace because I have been trying to find a good Angel book to read and I have been wanting to give it a try.
I would choose the Hardcover copy of Embrace (because it would be AWESOME to have it hardcopy) :) or Forbidden, another great book!
maybe embrace, but can't read all the titles in the pic, so not sure
thanks
I think I'd pick Slide! (:
Honestly, I'd love to get any of them, but I'm quite partial to Abandon by Meg Cabot. I LOVE that story. It's a perfect twist on the tale of Persephone and is pure BEAUTIFUL.
I would like to read Forgive My Fins by I can't help but cove the pretty finished copy of Embrace, so that is probably the one for me. All of those books are amazing though.
Thank you, for being a part of YASH and for hosting this awesome giveaway!
Thank you for the amazing giveaway!
If I won, I would be happy recieving any of those books. But if I had to choose, I would probably pick Firelight by Sophie Jordan because it was probably one of the most interesting dragon books that I have read and would love to read again. :)

I would love to win Embrace :))
I have been dying to read the blood coven vampire series by Mari Mancusi

Slide also sounds really interesting and different.
Firelight. Haha. I may not *love* saying I love a dragon book, but oh my. One of my favorites.

I'd probably picked Slide because it's been one of those books I've wanted to get from the moment I heard of it. And I've never gotten a chance to pick this one up. It's so interesting. If I happen to change my mind, I'd pick Embrace, because for some reason, I'm drawn to it.
