    NSDictionary *dataDictionary = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:jsonData options:0 error:&error];
//    NSLog(@"%@",dataDictionary);

    self.blogPosts = [NSMutableArray array];

    NSArray *blogPostsArray = [dataDictionary objectForKey:@"posts"];

    for (NSDictionary *bpDictionary in blogPostsArray) {
        BlogPost *blogPost = [BlogPost blogPostWithTitle:[bpDictionary objectForKey:@"title"]];

You should be able to use the dot notation

JSON

{
    "author": {
                "name" : "mckeejm"
              }
}

Objective C:

blogPost.author = [bpDictionary valueForKeyPath:@"author.name"];

valueForKey: is a KVC method, the correct way to access an object stored in a dictionary is via objectForKey:

You probably meant valueForKeyPath.
