If you look to the right side of this blog --> You'll see that I have a few fun or informational things for you to look at/use. There is first of all, a cute picture from the Christmas party (post-snowball fight!), then there is a list of our up-coming events and the dates they'll take place on, after that is a list of interesting blog's of YA authors or book reviews--if you're ever stuck wondering what to read next these are excellent places to look! Then I've got some useful links to fun websites like freerice.com and Teen Ink- a magazine that has only articles and work written by teens. Then there's a little About Sti thing, because I know you need to know more :P and there's also a few random selections from My Bookshelf so you can see what books I've been reading and enjoyed!

Okay, here's where the prizes come in! If you have time, explore a few of the links I've put up and tell me which you've liked best or give me a suggestion of a blog or website I should feature for you and the other teens who read this blog!

dftba,

When Harry overhears that his parents’ best friend betrayed them to Voldemort and was so angry he wanted to kill Sirius Black I cried, a lot. Besides that I thought the whole Time Turner device was really nifty on J.K.'s part (yeah, we're close, I can call her that*).

Sigh. When I re-read it: January 2011 What my thoughts are now: This book is so great, I can see why it's a lot of people's favorite of the series. I mean, c'mon t...
