My fave recent contemp YA is definitely THE SKY IS EVERYWHERE -- amazing book! :)
My favorite recent contemporary YA is Jellicoe Road by Melina Marchetta. Such a great book! :)
I haven't read many contemporary YA books but I loved Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles. It's one of my favourite books ever! :)

unfortunately i havent had a chance to read that many contemp's lately, so the last one i read would probably have to be The Body of Christopher Creed by Carol Plum-Ucci.
both Losing Faith and The Sky is Everywhere sound like great reads!
Definitely SEA, by Heidi R. Kling!
I have two most recent favorite YA contemporary novels. Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver and Seth Baumgartner's Love Manifesto by Eric Luper! Awesome giveaway, been longing to read both these books! :D

Hmmm...That's a hard one. I've actually read a few contemp YA's that I've really enjoyed.
Forget You by Jennifer Echols
This Side Of Normal by Eric Devine
Those are two that really stood out for me.

Thanks for the awesome giveaway. :)
Anything by Simone Elkeles is worth mentioning, but I think the best one was If I Stay by Gayle Forman.

I don't read a whole lot of contemporary YA titles, though I'm really enjoying "I Now Pronounce You Someone Else" by Erin McCahan!

I also enjoyed SEA!

My favorite YA contemporary novel will be "Leaving Paradise" by Simone Elkeles. *sighs* I cannot wait for the sequel.
Leaving Paradise feels such a realistic novel. One you get so many emotions while reading. As smiling, laughing, crying, shouting out loud and so many more. Simone is a genious! :D
Thanks for doing this giveaway, I'm DYING to read "Losing Faith". I can relate to the main topic of Denise's book, and can't wait for the release of the book. :)
Recently my favorite was The DUFF. It was so good!!
I'm also a huge Simone Elkeles fan!
