I'm sad to say that the only book my kids (my 12 yo) have read from the list is Rick Riordan.
I'm doing much better with the teen list. :D
Thanks so much for this list and the reminder to vote. My younger two absolutely LOVE the Bad kitty books. And I know my oldest will want to vote for Divergent. :)
