From Teenreads.com :

Nominate Your Favorite Books of 2008 for the Teen Choice Book Award!

In association with the Children’s Book Council (CBC), Teenreads.com is giving you a very special opportunity to let your voices be heard by telling us your five favorite books of 2008. The five titles that receive the most “votes” will serve as the finalists for the CBC’s 2009 Teen Choice Book Award. Later we will tell you where you can go vote for them once the five finalists have been announced. The winner will be announced in May 2009.

All you have to do is fill out the form found here between now and January 31, 2009. Your top five selections may come from the list provided here, or you can vote for titles not on the list.

Important Note: Please be sure that the book(s) was released for the first time in 2008; this means that paperbacks originally published as hardcovers will not be accepted. If you’re uncertain about a book’s release date, we suggest you search for that title on Amazon.com.

A book nobody really checks out but SHOULD

Check out Repossessed by a chick who's last name is Jenkins.
At a thin 217 pages, 24 chapters, it's a quick read, and you'll find yourself turning the pages to take on the next chapter at the end of each chapter, trying to find out what the heck is going on.
It's fun. It's about this demon who possesses this dude's body. What more do you need to know? That's what I thought.
GO CHECK IT OUT. NOW.
