Teens' Top Ten

Where Teens Choose the Winners!

About the Teens' Top Ten

Teens' Top Ten is a "teen choice" list, where teens nominate and choose their favorite books of the previous year! Nominators are members of teen book groups in fifteen school and public libraries around the country. Galley group applications for 2008-2010 are now available!

If you read nominated books throughout the year, you’ll be ready to vote for your favorites during Teen Read Week, October 12 - 18, 2008. Readers aged twelve to eighteen can vote right here, online, anytime that week.

2008 Nominations

See the 2008 Teens' Top Ten Nominations (PDF)

Pass out handouts of the nominations (PDF) to your teens (use this version to add your own logo and info at the end [PDF]) or create Teens' Top Ten 2008 bookmarks (PDF)!

Read as many titles as you can so you can make informed decisions about your favorite books when you vote. Encourage your friends to join you in TTT reading and voting—tell your book group, youth organization and any other groups you belong to to come here between October 12-18 and vote! The more teens who participate, the more accurately the winning list will reflect the reading tastes of teens all over the country!
