Kick Butt Characters YA Hop

I'm excited to be participating in the Kick-Butt Characters YA Blog Hop, hosted by Good Choice Reading and Kathy of I Am a Reader, Not a Writer.

If you enjoy YA books that feature characters who aren't afraid to get their hands dirty, brandish a sword, try out some martial arts, or just plain kick some butt in the interest of what's right, this is the Hop for you.

For my prize, the winner will be able to choose any one of these books featuring a take-no-prisoners heroine.


Ellie in Wings of the Wicked is the ultimate butt-kicker. She's the Preliator and spends her time killing reapers. If you choose this book, you'll also receive a bookmark for Angelfire that is autographed by author Courtney Allison Moulton.

No, Lena didn't start out as a butt-kicker in Delirium. But after reading Pandemonium, I'd argue that she's graduated to butt-kicker status. See how it all develops in Pandemonium.

And Shatter Me! If you haven't read this, here's your chance. Yes, Juliette may be wearing a poufy dress on the cover, but she's not a girl you'd want to mess with.

New Choice Added!
In comments, a bunch of you mentioned Rhine. So I'm adding Fever by Lauren DeStefano as a choice. Since there are no "tweet daily" entries in this giveaway, everyone still has the same number of chances to win.

Tell me in comments: Who's your favorite butt-kicking character?
