If you're looking for reviews of teen books and teen books only; if you're looking for news about the YA lit world, links to other kids' book sites, or guest posts from YA authors like Paula Yoo, Melissa Walker, and more–well, look no further than Teen Book Review, the blog of YA Fiction panelist Jocelyn Pearce.
