• Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater
• Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld
• Matched by Ally Condie
• The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan
• Breaking Dawn by Stephanie Meyer

• Drought by Pam Bachorz
• The Scorch Trials by James Daschner
• The Foretelling by Alice Hoffman 
• Dead-Tossed Waves by Carrie Ryan

I've been enjoying my exploration of YA, so this challenge should fit in nicely!
