Armchair BEA Day 5: Keeping It Real/Young Adult Literature
Keeping It Real
How to draw an audience is to make sure you have reviews, follow weekly posts and blog tours and even giveaways help with gaining a following on your blog. When I first started out in the beginning it was a giveaway that I posted in Goodreads that really started to get me a following. Also you need to sign up for twitter and facebook as a way to connect with your readers and the authors and publishers. Thinking back, it was a lot of work to get to the point of where I am now but its totally worth it!
Young Adult Literature
The Top Books that should be on young peoples shelves are:
1. The Lux Series by Jennifer L. Armentrout
2. The Covenant Series by Jennifer L. Armentrout (ALL of her books!!)
3. Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas
4. The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin
5. Pretty much all the authors I love
I am an adult that does read YA, I always love to go to that section because I can really connect with the characters even though am a bit older but it makes you feel young and think back.
Love love! the Lux series or pretty much anything written by Armentrout. Great picks :)
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing, I need to check these titles
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any of Jennifer L. Armentrout's YA stuff. So I guess I gotta do that :)
ReplyDeleteGiveaways do generate more traffic than anything else I've seen. But I can only do those every now and then. But like you said, variety is key too!
