2008 Booktrust teen shortlist.

And the list is:

Creature of the Night by Kate Thompson
The Knife that Killed Me by Anthony McGowan
The Red Necklace by Sally Gardner
Snakehead by Anthony Horowitz
Apache by Tanya Landman
The Knife of Never Letting Goby Patrick Ness

I've only read one -- The Red Necklace, which I luuurved.  A couple of the others are on my TBR list, and I'm adding the others to my GoodReads thingie.  Well, minus the Alex Rider -- three of those was enough for me.

I bought THE KNIFE THAT KILLED ME on my recent trip and it's nearing the top of the pile. In just skimming, it seems very different from HELLBENT.

I love the things you write about, and the way you write about them, your voice. Your blog is entertaining AND informative.

I’ve nominated your blog for the Brilliante Weblog Premio Award! Please visit my blog for more information :).

Knife of Never Letting Go is SO GOOD. Really, really good. I've been trying to sell it to as many people as possible!

Although I don't think it'll win because it doesn't seem very prize-y to me. Anything except Horowitz, please!

Thanks, Cheryl! And Anna, I've had it on my list for ages -- I'll have to track down a copy!
