Oh yeah....like you didn't know this was coming!! Suey, from It's All About the Books and Jessica, from The Bluestocking Society have come together to host the perpetual challenge - The Printz Project. It even has it's own blog!!
Like unto other book award projects, the Printz Project is a perpetual challenge to read the winners of the Michael L. Printz Award (and perhaps the honor books if you’re brave).
Since the Printz Award is a relatively new award, we’re structuring this site a little differently. Each Printz Award-winning book and honor book has its own post. When you read one of the books, head on over to its post and leave either a link to your review on your own blog or go ahead and post your thoughts right there in the comments. This format is designed to keep reviews on the same book together. Each book’s post has a picture of the cover and the synopsis from the publisher. Feel free to browse about.

Seriously...I love YA books!! And out of the entire list of books, I've read 4 of them. And LOVED all 4: Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson, I am the Messenger by Mark Zuzak, The Book Thief by Mark Zuzak, and Looking for Alaska by John Green. So, yes, I'm IN!!

I joined this one, too! Going to be lots of good reads!
Kailana - The reading list looks awesome!! I just heart YA books!!
I have Speak right here and I haven't read it yet! What is wrong with me!
Also, I've been dying to read I am the Messenger since your awesome review so long ago. This will give me an excuse!
Nymeth - Speak was a great book!! And so was I am Messenger. I LOVED that book. (when you read it we can discuss the ending....) I figured, I've read 4 books on the list and all 4 were fantastic....bodes well for the rest of them!
You're so right. This one is not even worth trying to resist!!!
Debi - I KNEW you would know how I felt!!
So glad you're joining us Stephanie! Yeah! :)
Sigh ... It's useless for me to even ponder this challenge - I pretty much knew I was gonna cave and join eventually :) Besides all the books look wicked. I'd made a list of all the winners and nominees - shocked to see I had already read 11 of them lol :)
You're hilarious Stephanie. I knew it was coming. It was only a matter of time... lol. =D
I'm just getting into reading YA books too, but I think I'll hold off on this for now. I'm already way over my head when it comes to challenges.
I caved and had to join this one too! I love all the Printz books and I'm stupid excited about reading them all :p
I'm not sure if I've ever read a Printz awarded book. Several are on my need to read list though.
