#ArmchairBEA2014 Topic of Choice & Middle Grade/Young Adult

Armchair BEA

Since I get to choose the topic, I'm gonna shameless plug my topic. 
Memes.
Do you meme? Do you host a meme?

The Friday 56 has been my meme for almost 3 years. I was voted the torch, and was passed it from Tonya and Storytime With Tonya And Friends. 
The idea behind The Friday 56, is to share a bit of the book, from Page 56, and see if it suits your tastes. It is much like Teaser Tuesdays which I also participate in, but different as well.
It's a great resource for finding new books or even discovering old ones. It has a decent turnout too, so you are more than welcome to check it out or even join in. (Linky is open all week.)

Now let's discuss Middle Grade and Young Adult.
Seems I have read a ton, and am learning just how much adults can enjoy these books too.
Here are some of my favorites, in no particular order, but starting with middle grade books.

Now Young Adult books I loved.

    I find many of these young adult books are very enjoyable. Blogging has opened my eyes to many genres I would have otherwise missed. Thanks everyone for sharing your books so I can go on the adventures with you.

    I love the cover for Juniper Berry! Enclave looks exciting.

    Juniper Berry's cover also attracted my attention (referencing one of the commenters). I also have been meaning to read a couple of the YA books you mentioned - I'm glad to know they are among your favorites!

    I enjoyed Ransom Riggs' book and looking forward to the film adaptation. Tim Burton is directing, so it should be good.

The legendary wizard, Merlin, appears and explains that the throne of Camelot must be determined through TRIAL BY COMBAT. Our heroes pull out all the stops to try and win the tournament, break the witch's hold on King Arthur, and find a way back to the present in this legendary story of Scooby Doo in King Arthur's Court. REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
