Ending YASH!!
Hey Hunters,
I hope you all had so much fun throughout the hunt. I loved all the comments I read on this site and many of the author sites and even on Facebook about TO READ lists getting longer and longer. :-D I know the feeling!
Since it takes us a while to validate all the entries, please come back on Wednesday to find out who the winners are for both the Red and the Blue teams as well as many of the authors' individual giveaways.
We're always looking for ways to improve the Hunt experience for everyone. If you have any feedback (what went well, what went terribly, suggestions on how to improve), please leave a comment or send an email to yash.organizer@gmail.com.

Welcome to the YA Scavenger Hunt Spring 2014!!
It's that time of year again! Welcome to the Spring 2014 YA SCAVENGER HUNT!!!!
Participating in the YA Scavenger Hunt is easy! Here's all you have to do:
The hunt opens officially at noon Pacific Time--all posts by authors should be up then.
During that time, you can go to the participating authors blogs and websites--you can find them all here. The first thing on the page should be their hunt information--there you can find out about new authors and get exclusive content.
Take note of the highlighted number on each author's hunt page. You need that number to enter the contest!
Each author is on either the RED Team or the BLUE Team. Add up the numbers of all the authors on the red team, and you have the secret code you need to enter the contest for the red team--then do the same for the blue! The prize is all the books from the authors on that team which you can find here! You can only enter once, and your entry only counts if you have the right number, so make sure you get the right code! Break out those calculators!
You have to submit your entry by April 6, noon, Pacific Standard Time. You can submit your entry for each team HERE.
On April 9th, we'll announce the winners! There's one winner for the red team, and one for the blue team. The hunt IS open internationally, to all ages, so you have no excuse to not join in the fun!
Still have questions? Post them in the comments here and we'll do our best to answer them as soon as possible.
Also? We need your help! If you like the Hunt, please help spread the word. We can only do the Hunt when our readers tell us they want it, so please--spread the word about the Hunt!
You can share it on Facebook, Twitter, your blog, or anywhere else.
A quick note as we kick off the celebration:
