About the Teens' Top Ten
Teens' Top Ten is a "teen choice" list, where teens nominate and choose their favorite books of the previous year! Nominators are members of teen book groups in fifteen school and public libraries around the country.

If you read nominated books throughout the year, you’ll be ready to vote for your favorites during Teen Read Week, October 12 - 18, 2008. Readers aged twelve to eighteen can vote online anytime that week. For the 2008 Teens’ Top Ten Nominees list, go to: http://www.ala.org/ala/yalsa/teenreading/teenstopten/2008_nominees.pdf
