The YA Bloggers Book Battle discussion

Round 1 Judges are busy compiling their submission lists. The top 16 books from their lists will make the shortlist and be used in the brackets of Round 2.

So, which books do YOU think will make the shortlist? (If you need a reminder of what's eligible, the full long list can be found at this blog post)

Post your prediction lists here, and I will randomly select 1 winner to select a book of their choice from my "shelf o' books" as a prize. I've got lots and lots of 2011 ARCs and some other books, so if you'd like a shot at a prize, make your predictions now!

And if you head over to the Introductions thread of the group and introduce yourself, you'll get a bonus entry too!

Contest closes May 4th at midnight Pacific Time. Judges you can participate too!

Predictions...this is a toughie, but I think for sure these few will make the top 16:
The Hollow Kingdom (why hasn't this been made into a movie?!!)
The Sky is Everywhere
The Mockingbirds
Stravaganza: City of Masks
Some Girls Are
Revenge of the Witch
Keturah and Lord Death
