  Most Wanted: May 2013

  02.05.13 | Permalink | Comment?

  We still really love John Green. This doesn’t change even if you skip a month (oops). It’ll be a little while before we get something new from him – “Untitled” is due to be published in January next year. Until then, this post for other reading ideas.

  Public service announcement: 1D, the story of One Direction’s X-factor experience: we have only one copy of this book! We asked nicely for more, but unhappily there are none available, so they’re rare things. Consequently we can’t do much about the reserve queue. We have another book about the fab five, here.

  1. The Fault in Our Stars, John Green [up 1]
  2. Clockwork Princess, Cassandra Clare [down 1]
  3. Looking for Alaska, John Green [no change]
  4. 1D: One Direction: Forever Young [no change]
  5. Light, Michael Grant [new]
  6. The Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins [down 1]
  7. Catching Fire, Suzanne Collins [up 1]
  8. Chosen at Nightfall, C C Hunter [new]
  9. Beautiful Creatures, Kami Garcia & Margaret Stohl [down 3]
  10. Scorched Earth, Robert Muchamore [down 2]

  2. The Fault in Our Stars, John Green [no change]
  3. Looking for Alaska, John Green [no change]
  4. 1D: One Direction: Forever Young [up 1]
