Find Your Favorite

With the new look, comes a new way of organizing our content to better meet the needs of you --- our readers!. To make that transition easier --- and to help you find your favorite features quickly, as well as some surprises --- we have created this index page that will take you directly to the specific feature you are trying to find. We are currently undergoing a beta test to ensure that everything is working properly on the new Teenreads.com. Please note that during this beta testing period there will be some features missing that still need to be moved over from the old site.

All of the old features from Teenreads.com WILL be added to the new site, including the Teenreads.com Ultimate Reading List, which so many of you have been asking about. Ultimate Reading List. Our goal each month is to inspire you to read --- and to keep reading!

Ultimate Reading List

With that in mind, we created the Ultimate Reading List --- a list of more than 400 titles that we think make perfect pleasure reading for teens. Our criteria: We looked for books that were compelling, beautifully written, pure fun, thought-provoking or edge-of-your-seat gripping; books that we would hand to someone and say, “read this!” We hope that you will use the Ultimate Reading List when selecting books for independent reading, and that schools will consult it when making suggestions for their students for summer reading.

Each year, we go through the list with fresh eyes, culling some titles and adding others. The latest edition is from March 2015 and features titles through February 2015 --- please find it below, and enjoy! First, though, a few things to note: 1) We plan on adding an “advanced” PDF of the Ultimate Reading List to the site very soon. What's Next® Database.
