Recently I read two owl-shifter books by Seana Kelly. They're short, entertaining mysteries (with romantic elements) involving a variety of shifters. They remind me a little of the Sierra Shifters stories I've been working on. But the reason I picked them up had very little to do with that. I liked the covers, too, but again that's not usually something that motivates me to pick up a book. No, I bought these books because of a YA novel that I'd read and loved back when my kids were teenagers. Owl in Love is a wonderful little book that's only available in print and--sadly--no longer has the gorgeous cover (pictured below) that it originally had.
It's a funny thing. I don't really feel any great desire to write YA even though some of the books that I remember most vividly and have stuck with me the longest are YA.
