Teens Top 10 Winners Announced
Every year Yalsa (a division of ALA) gives Teens an opportunity to nominate and vote on their Top 10 titles for the year. Here are the 2012 winners, as chosen by teens.
I am super excited to see Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs on the list. I would love to have seen Myra McEntire or Ilsa J. Bick on the list. But I am always excited to see teens reading Sarah Dessen, love her! I adore Where She Went by Gayle Forman and The Fault in Our Stars by John Green and am glad there is some contemporary titles to help balance the science fiction. All in all, a pretty good list.

Oh, I'm so happy to see Legend and The Fault in Our Stars (not a surprise, that one.) Cinder too! Great list. Only two I haven't read. I'll have to get on that!
