Thing 20: Recess

During this "recess,"  I decided to explore Shelfari a little further. Shelfari allows users to make a "Best of.." list, so I made a "Best of YA list."We are starting a Silent Sustained Reading program this year at Dickinson High School and I am hoping to share these recommendations with teachers. I am also including my reasoning behind adding each book.  So far, I have added these books to the list....

1. The Harry Potter series

2. The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series

3.The Hunger Games trilogy

4. Before I Fall

5.  An Abundance of Katherines

6. The Fault in Our Stars

7. Looking for Alaska

8. Dreamland

9. The Chronicles of Narnia 

10. Holes 

11. Nineteen Minutes

12. Percy Jackson and the Olympians series

13. The Heroes of Olympus series

14. The Perks of Being a Wallflower

15. Between Shades of Gray

16. A Wrinkle in Time 

17. Just Listen

There are many more I am going to add but, in the meantime, everyone should give these a read!  You can see my list here.
