100 Most Popular YA Books

This list has been going around.  Not sure how reliable this list is (#84 should be #81 going by alphabetical order) but I thought it'd be fun to see how many I've read on the list (in bold).  Looks like 15 out of 100 ... 23 books including the series.  Not too shabby for a newbie.  Then, there's only 10 (marked with an asterisk) more on the list that's on my TBR list ... 25 books including the series. 

There's a few that I thought were adult fiction so it looks like I'll have to make few changes on my labels.  ;)

How about you?  How many have you read on the list?  Be sure to leave me a comment with a link if you post one.  Oh, if I missed one that you absolutely think I should add to my TBR list, please let me know.  ~Thanks.

  1. These are not all YA books. Some are juvenile and others Adult. Plus, it makes me wonder who put it together. I would disagree with many and think several others should be added. Way to go on what you have read. Keep it up.
