October 3, 2017

Welcome to the 15th YA Scavenger Hunt!

Hello! I am Colleen Houck,

your hostess for this leg of the hunt.

About Me

My 2018 Calendar is steampunk themed.

I am having my new home built!

My goal this year is to read 150 books (I’ve read 90 so far).

I love See’s lollipops.

And my all time favorite romance adventure is Romancing the Stone!

You are currently hunting on TEAM PINK.

Looking for my exclusive bonus content? You’ll have to keep searching.

Somewhere on this blog hop, I’ve hidden a sneak peak from REUNITED! Before you go looking for them, check out the amazing author I’m hosting.

But, first, a few rules.

Now that all the technical stuff is out of the way, I’ll introduce the author I am hosting on this hunt.

I am super excited to be hosting…

MELANIE MCFARLAN

About MELANIE:

“I was first drawn to writing stories at the age of 10. I remember keeping a small notebook and writing a ton of short stories about young girls on adventures (I was very inspired by Little House on the Prairie, Nancy Drew, and Anne of Green Gables back then). When I was in Grade 10 I was obsessed with poetry, Shakespeare, and all things a teen writer’s world revolves around (teen romance, angst, insecurity, etc). Perhaps that’s why I have an incredible love for YA fiction.

In high school I had the honor of having Gary Hyland as an English teacher. He taught me that there was a network of authors I could connect with and told me to keep on writing. It wasn’t until fifteen years later when I reconnected with him just before his passing that he told me it was never too late to be a writer. I never forgot that.”

The book she is showcasing is

ABOUT THE BOOK

“As Dome 1618 begins to colonize, a sharp divide separates those who chose to live inside the dome and those that seek freedom on the outside. When the colony is attacked, Nat escapes with Evan to his home, Dome 569, a progressive dome that colonized on the outside over a decade ago. But there are many rules in Dome 569 — some that come with deadly consequences if broken. Dome leader, Caroline, is not impressed that Evan failed to destroy Dome 1618 to eradicate the virus-a violation of a direct order. Nat uncovers secrets of Dome 569 that could tear down the world Caroline has sacrificed to protect, forcing Evan to chose between her and the only home he’s ever known. Is Nat willing to sacrifice her morals and values in exchange for freedom, or will she die fighting for what she believes in?”
