We’ve been busy over in the teen section this past week working on putting together the finishing touches to our new teen website — something I encourage you to check out. You can get to it from BookPeople.com, or you can click here. There’s a bunch of cool stuff you can do from this site:

- Read reviews of young adult books by local Austin teens — Members of our Not Just Another Teen Book Club, participants in our Teen Reviewer Program, and our Teen Interns all contribute reviews to the site in exchange for free advance reading copies of books. Although our Reviewer and Intern programs are full at this time, we still have 3 spots left in the Book Club. Check the Club’s website for more information, or email me (Madeline) at kids_blog at bookpeople dot com.
- Submit your own reviews of young adult books — Have a book you just love? Let us know about it here.
- Check out our upcoming teen events — In July, we’re excited to be hosting Jennifer Ziegler’s release party for her latest book, Sass & Serendipity. For more information, click here.
- Subscribe to our Teen Reviewer site — This way you’ll know every time a new review goes up.
And as always, we’ll continue to bring you great book reviews and interesting teen book related news to this blog every Thursday.
