Crossover Appeal

Do you know a teen who loves to read? Point them to the annual Alex Awards list, which recognizes “ten books written for adults that have special appeal to young adults, ages 12 through 18.” The books are selected by the Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA), a division of the American Library Association (ALA). YALSA offers many other good booklists, such as Great Graphic Novels for Teens, Popular Paperbacks for Young Adults, Quick Picks for Reluctant Young Adult Readers, et al.
