Behold, a List

OK, so The Independent haven't updated their website yet so nobody's been able to find this Ten Best Books For Teenagers list I've been talking about.

Patience, people. I'm sure the Indy will have it online very soon, so if you like you can check back at www.independent.co.uk/best in a couple of days.

Meanwhile, I'm going to expend precious finger pad power on typing up the entire list for you here, now...

The Independent's Ten Best Books for Teenagers
I Capture The Castle, by Dodie Smith
Nightrise, by Anthony Horowitz
Animal Farm, by George Orwell
Cold Comfort Farm, by Stella Gibbons
Triskellion, by Will Peterson
A Gathering Light, by Jennifer Donnelly
Kiss, by Jacqueline Wilson
Noughts and Crosses, by Malorie Blackman
Jimmy Coates: Sabotage, by Joe Craig
Bog Child, by Siobhan Dowd

Strange that there are two farms (Cold Comfort; Animal), two descriptions of the weather (Gathering Light; Nightrise) and two fun ways to spend a rainy afternoon in a power cut (Noughts and Crosses; Kiss).
