Best Teen Books discussion

Care to share with Santa and a few others books that you would like to receive as gifts?

well, i think i just want an ipod nano (the new one), a digital camera,a tote bag or a messenger bag, and maybe some jewelry. =] =] =]

I've been meaning to get out to grab The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie and The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick, which I've already accidentally rated as a five on my profile. Anyone know how to un-rate things once you've done so?

Tricia, just go to edit your review then click on "clear" next to the stars (yes, I've done that before too!)

BTW, Hugo Cabret is good :)

Thanks, Janice

Snakehead by Anthony Horowitz. I am so excited to learn what is going on in Alex Rider's life. And the sequel to Stargirl.

Guilty Pleasure this Christmas...The companion novels to the TV show Supernatural. Hate to admit it, but they are close to the top of my Christmas list.

These are on my Christmas wish list:

The Name of this Book is Secret by Pseudonymous Bosch

The Wall and the Wing by Laura Ruby

The Game Of Sunken Places by M.T. Anderson

The Magic Toyshop by Angela Carter

I don't know that these are good, but they look interesting to me.

Janis just reminded me that I need to add M. T. Anderson's Octavian Nothing to my list. I love his book Feed and have been meaning to read the rest of his books.

J-Lynn, if you enjoyed Feed at all for the marketing/advertising/commercialism aspect of the book, I'd recommend Scott Westerfield's So Yesterday as well. It provides some solid lessons on marketing terminology while providing a fun and intriguing mystery/story.

Sweet! Thanks for the recommendation.

I am hoping Santa brings me The Marvel Encyclopedia. :-)

I want a bunch of DVDs and some TV shows! I also really want some of the Once Upon a Time books, some Meg cabots, Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy, and a bunch of others!

I asked for the Twilight books series by Stephenie Meyer and I want them really bad and also Meg Cabots new book Big Boned (A Heather Wells mystery)! I also asked for board games: Yahtzee, Cooties, Sorry. Oh! And the movie Hairspray! :)

I really want Wicked, it sounds so good. I also want a really adorable sweater, but it's not exactly a book.

I want The Sweet Far Thing, by Libba Bray!

I've just made a new list for this year all in January for both my b-day and x-mas. The list included James Patterson's Maximum Ride: The Final Warning, Stephenie Meyer's Breaking Dawn, and Philip Pullman's finishing touches to the His Dark Materials series.
