Book Divas

by Corinne Levinstein

books.jpgBook Divas began in 2002 and is based in Baltimore, MD. It is an online community for young adult readers. The mission of the Book Divas website is to “promote literacy among young adults and students while creating an active community where they can voice their opinions and thoughts.” The site includes a discussion board, book reviews, a blog, writing resources, contests, and much more.

Book Divas encourages librarians and teachers to become involved with the website, so they understand how to engage youth in reading and writing. Here is what Book Divas has to say about it:

Through Book Divas you will be linked to other librarians and educators across the globe. The discussion forum will allow you to chat about topics that matter to you. Ways to be more effective at your job, how to retain teenagers attention and putting distractions behind you are all possible topics that you may come across here.Not only will you be able to chat with those in your field, but Book Divas will serve as the link between you and the young readers themselves. Here you can find out what the top reads for young adults are, what type of books interest them and what the current trends are among that population is. Now you can be linked to thousands of young readers instantly. Book Divas can provide an overview of what’s happening in the reading community by isolating only book talk and sharing that information with you.
