Any other wonderfully amazing and/or possible Printz-worthy books I should add to my year’s must reads?

P.S. I just found this awesome booktrailer for The Adoration of Jenna Fox.  I think it is more compelling than almost anything I’ve read about the book.

  1. Cybele’s Secret by Juliet Marillier because of this awesome book you should read
  2. Graceling by Kristin Cashore — envy inspired by Bookshelves of Doom
  3. Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins — envy inspired by Librarilly Blonde and nineseveneight
  4. Revelations by Melissa de la Cruz (first read Blue Bloods and Masquerade)
  5. Shadow Kiss by Richelle Mead (first read Vampire Academy and Frostbite)
  6. The Silver Blade by Sally Gardner (first read The Red Necklace)

October and November seem to be particularly bountiful and I am sure a number of other great books will be released during that time.  I might have to schedule some time off from work just so I have time to read all the anticipated greatness! <sigh>
