A Call to Arms: YA Crush Tourney

Now Playing: I'm Alive - Shinedown


Hey guys! I'm back! Yay!!! But I'm here on urgent #YACrushTourney news. Today's matches are between Patch Cipriano, bad guy with a heart of gold, versus Simon from Cassandra Clare's The Mortal Instruments series (vote for whichever you like, but vote all the same). Meanwhile, the match that has everyone buzzing is the Adrian vs. Alec match. Now if you've been following the tourneys, you'll know anytime any of Ms. Clare's men are involved, their opponent is smushed.


A moment of silence for the fallen who were unfortunate enough to be placed against any of her men.

*silence*

A few of the notable; Finnick Odair, Four from Divergent, Vincent from Die for Me, Noah from Mara Dyer, Gale Hawthorne, Tod from the Soul Screamers series,  Etienne St. Clair,  Zachary Moore and more.


Alright, but with #TeamAdrian, we're gonna give Alec and any other Shadowhunter we may be up against a run for their money. Luckily, we were able to get the jump with Adrian in the lead. Let's keep it that way!!!

That means all you teams for the boys listed above, this is a call to arms to defend YA boys everywhere. Team Kilt, Team Finnick, all of you! Don't succumb to Clare's men's charms and good looks, and give your vote to Adrian. If we all band together, we can give them a match they'll never forget!


If that doesn't persuade you, will this?

There's a storm coming, Mr. Lightwood. You and your friends better secure your votes, because when #TeamAdrian hits, you're all gonna wonder how you ever thought you could leave a gap of votes so large and leave so little for the rest of swoon-worthy boys you trampled in your quest. 


VOTE NOW!

The Epic Birthday with a Modest Giveaway

Now Playing: Just a Little Bit - Kids of 88

If we can't have a party now, you can be damn sure we'll avenge it

Guys, there's a birthday going down on the East Coast. It is for a very awesome person who I met over Twitter and MIGHT be able to meet in real life at ALA. Her name is Jill over at SwiminBooks and she's the funniest/nicest/sweetest person ever. So, I decided "what the hell Jaz, you've got a few books you don't read. DO A GIVEAWAY FOR HER BIRTHDAY!"

So cutting to the chase; Here is what is offered.
FOUR PAPERBACKS to go to FOUR PEOPLE.

The Books: 
Are You Going to Kiss Me Now? by Sloane Tanen
Slayed by Amanda Marrone
Zombies Don't Cry by Rusty Fischer
I'm Not Her by Janet Gurtler

A bookmark of Shade signed by Jeri Smith-Ready and some other one to be put in random books.



Sounds good right? All you have to do is tweet #JillsBirthdayBash and link to me (@JazminLabrada)
No following, nothing to get extra points, just do the form! Sorry, but it's only for US residents because shipping is a cruel mistress. Extending the date to like the 25th of June as Jill has, because seriously? one entry :D







Also, as many of you know (or don't, I dunno) the YA Crush Tourney is back, and I've kinda been the unofficial spokeswoman for it so yeah, here's me telling you to be representatives. You'll have fun and

We have hot boys, fun tweets, awesome authors intervening to pull their boys through AND OH THE LATE NIGHT TWITTER SESSIONS! <3
Peace.
