YALSA's 2009 Teens' Top Ten Nominations

So, which books are worthy of being included in the 2009 Teens' Top Ten sponsored by YALSA? Online voting by teens starts August 25, 2009 at http://www.ala.org/teenstopten

Check out the list and don't forget to vote for your favorites. You can also go to the YALSA website and find brief summaries of every book on the list in case you have not read them (there are many I need to read myself). Hmmm...I just recently read Wake, barely got through the beginning of Breaking Dawn a while back, already read Impossible, have just started Absolutely Maybe, and already posted a review for Living Dead Girl. From all the ones I just listed...I vote for Living Dead Girl.
