It's all about reading for the FUN of it. You really don't need to pick a week, a single week?, to give yourself time to read anything you're interested in. It's still pretty cool that there were 4,800 public and school libraries last year that signed up to participate in Teen Read Week. Not so surprising this year's theme, if you read it that way, has a vampire slant to it, with the interest in the Stephenie Meyer series. November 21 just may be marked on some of your calendars, but anyway, the Thumbs Up! list is one place to find some great titles. My favorites these past few weeks have been, Red Glass by Laura Resau, and Cures for Heartbreak by Margo Rabb.
Take this survey Teen's Top Ten, where teens nominate and choose their favorite books.

One of my favorite's on the Thumps Up! list is The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie. It won a National Book Award last year. I heard many others are good including Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher and Evolution, Me, and Other Freaks of Nature by Robin Brande. It is a wonderful list to look for ideas on what to read next!
