Deb Waugh on 26 Nov 08This is actually NOT one of the awards lists that I use for collection development anymore. Like many other librarians I've spoken to, I found that the list peaked with "How I Live Now", and hasn't had a book on it that was popular with teenagers since. I think that they have taken their goal of awarding books of literary excellence in the wrong direction, going for obscure and hard to read books.
