This is my second year participating and it's a lot of fun. Round One is now over and here are the books moving on to Round Two: Such good books! In the top half of the bracket, I would really love to see Greenglass House and Graffiti Moon  move on. I won't comment on the bottom half as I'm the one judging between the winners. And holy cow am I nervous about that now! </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden' href='http://randommusingsofabibliophile.blogspot.com/2015/03/ya-mg-book-battle-round-one-what.html'></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-bottom'> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-0'> <div class='byline post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <div aria-owns='sharing-popup-Blog1-footer-0-4844283398917951150' class='sharing' data-title='YA MG Book Battle Round One-What Survived?

Of the bookish sort that is. There are two bracket style battles I'm invested in taking place in the coming weeks. The first is the School Library Journal Battle of the Books . I've been following this one for years, and still love it. This is the first year in a few years where I haven't read all of the books, but there are still a lot of contenders I'm really excited about. You can see the brackets here . The book I'm hoping wins it all: This will be a challenge as the Newbery winner is famously unable to win this competition. It is probably not a shock then that this is what I voted for in the Undead Poll, which is now open. Go vote if there's a contender you love! SLJ BoB 2015 commences on March 9.  The other Battle I'm excited about is the YA/MG Book Battle which focuses on under-appreciated books from the backlist (including last year). You can see the contenders here.
