100 Most Popular YA Books
So, this is a list of what is supposedly the 100 most popular books/series in YA today. I found it over at What's Your Story, a blog I follow, who in turn found it somewhere else, ect. I have no idea who originally built the list and on what criteria it was decided, but I thought I'd go through and see how many I'd read anyway!
Bold means I've read it.
Italics means I own it, but have not read it yet.
