Welcome to YA Scavenger Hunt! My name is Pintip Dunn, and I am your hostess for this leg of the tour. I’m a NYT bestselling and RITA® award winning author of YA fiction, and I’m super excited about the scavenger hunt this year because today is the release day of SEIZE TODAY, the third and final book of my FORGET TOMORROW series! Be on the lookout for my inspiration board for SEIZE TODAY, which you’ll come across if you continue to link through the Blue Team!
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! At this hunt, you not only get access to exclusive content from each author, you also get a clue for the 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!
Go to the YA Scavenger Hunt page to find out all about the hunt. There are seven contests going on simultaneously, and you can enter one or all! I am a part of the BLUE TEAM–but there is also a red team, an orange team, a green team, a gold team, a purple team, and a pink team for a chance to win a whole 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 up for grabs, go to the YA Scavenger Hunt page.

SCAVENGER HUNT POST
Today, I am delighted to be hosting the lovely Nina Rossing on my website for the YA Scavenger Hunt!
Nina Rossing lives in Norway, where the winters are long and the summers short. Despite the brilliant nature surrounding her, she spends more time in front of her computer, or with a book in her hands, than in the great outdoors. She works as a high school teacher, which in her opinion is probably the best job in the world.
