And, BTW, the list is for TEENS, ages 12-18, not for us adults. Believe me, the committee members will be seeking input from the teens at their libraries to help them decide what books will be on the final list. That's what I'd be doing if I were on the committee. The list is annual, so Scott Pilgrim Vol. 4 will be eligible for nominations for next year’s list.

Nice, fun book that is still in search of an audience it seems. Also, Rick Geary's THE SAGA OF THE BLOODY BENDERS is awesome as are all the other books in this "Victorian Muders" series.
