HELLO! MY NAME IS SARAH VANCE-TOMPKINS

Welcome to the YA Scavenger Hunt Fall 2017!

This bi-annual event was first organized by author Colleen Houck as a way to give readers a chance to gain access to exclusive bonus material from their favorite authors...and a chance to win some awesome prizes! You will not only get access to exclusive content from each author, you also get a clue to help you win the scavenger hunt. Add up the clues, and you can enter for our prize--one lucky winner will receive one book from each author on the hunt in my team! But play fast: this contest (and all the exclusive bonus material) will only be online for 120 hours!

The YA Scavenger Hunt page has everything you need to know about the eight contests going on simultaneously. You can enter one or all of them! I am a part of  #TEAMPINK -- but there is also a red team, an orange team, a gold team, a green team, a teal team, a blue team, and a purple team -- enter each for a chance to win a different set of books!

If you'd like to find out more about the hunt, see links to all the authors participating, and see the full list of prizes,  click to go to the YA Scavenger Hunt page.
