A student shared this resource with me. This is what she told me, " The thing that attracted me to it was their feature that allows you to type in a book title and it gives you recommendations based on that book. Plus, if you really want to narrow down your search you can add up to four books for more personalized results. I thought over the website was awesome, so I thought I just had to share it with you.." I think it looks like fun. This link is for the section on young adults and teens. 

This is one of my favorite lists of best books. 90% of what I've bought based on these recommendations have flown off the shelves. Their also some of my favorite books for book talks because I enjoy reading them while preparing the book talk!

This 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.
