Epic YA "Top 100" List

       I don't know the source of this list- as in where the facts came from, but I got it from iLive, iLaugh, iLove Books who traced it back to Rather Barefoot Than Bookless who in turn found it on a Swedish blog. I used Google to translate the Swedish blog and found out they are having a Joss Whedon marathon weekend! (I've recently become a Joss Whedon fangirl, which I plan to post about at some point)

       Anyways! The books I've read are in bold. So what do you think? How many have you read? What books should be on here? Which books shouldn't be on here?
