Amazon likes lists more than I do even. They’ve got every list you can think of (mostly thanks to their customers), including their Best Books of 2008 ones. This is what the Amazon.com editors suggest are the top 10 teen books for the year. This is an interesting list; partly because there is no number 2 (I looked and looked, through one eye and then the other). This suggests The Kingdom on the Waves (the second part of The Astonishing Life of Octavian Nothing by M T Anderson) is so, well, astonishing that nothing comes close, perhaps? In any case there are some interesting books on this list, ones that we like even: check out our posts on The Hunger Games, Little Brother and The Graveyard Book (I’m still waiting for this one, but a reliable source tells me it’s good).

Thanks for this link, looks like Number 2 is up there now. They must have read your post and fixed it! Great blog, you’re doing excellent work down there.
Thanks for that!
Re number 2 (which is now Paper Towns by John Green I see): John Green is great. We also liked Paper Towns a lot.
