The 26 nominees for the YALSA Teens’ Top 10 2008 have been announced. Remember, this is the only booklist that is nominated by teens and chosen by teens. Teens all over the country have nominated these books as the best for 2007-2008. Now you have no excuse not to be ready to vote during Teen Read Week, October 12-18, 2008. We want to know which of these books you like the best! The good news is Wake County already owns most of these. Get reading!
This is a great list of books. Who knows? Maybe your favorite is already on it. Click here to see the nominees with annotations. We will look forward to seeing your votes in October. Update on May 19, 2008: You can listen to a podcast about this event and download it onto your Ipod or mp3.
