It’s my 4th favorite time of year (precluded by Christmas, Black Friday, and my birthday, naturally)! YALSA has released the list of titles picked for 2011 Teens’ Top Ten Nominations!
The teens that do the nominating are members of teen book groups that span across sixteen schools and libraries throughout the country. They chose the 25 books that they felt were the best that teen literature had to offer in the last year. Here is the list of books with some nice descriptions to help you decide which you’re going to read this summer!
From Aug. 22 until Sept. 16, teens between the ages of 12-18 can vote for their favorite book– the top ten will be announced during Teen Read Week!
Here are my favorites from the list that you should definitely check out–
Are there any books on here that you wouldn’t have picked? Any that are missing that you feel should’ve been included?

What?!?!? You didn’t pick Mockingjay?! I’m utterly shocked, Julie!
I will have to check some of these out. Matched looks interesting. I think my inner feminist would be itchy when reading that!
