Now there’s a good idea

Naomi Bates, blogger and contributer to the yalsa-bk listserv, is setting up a creative, collaborative initiative to generate some interesting YA booklists that she is calling YA:A2Z using Web 2.0 application Writeboard.

The idea:

Let’s collaborate and create lists of YA books (no more than five years old) from A to Z. One is by title (ie A is for Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary Pearson); one by author (ie M is for Mazer, Norma Fox, author of Missing Girl); one by subject (ie S is for steroids, Raiders Night by Robert Lipsyte).

Another subject would be??? I thought, “Hmmmm…main character, genre, a tag you’d give a book…” the possibilities are endless!

If you would like to contribute, visit Naomi’s blog, register and start creating.
