Looking for a good book? Try the Florida Teens Read List!

Picture
Every year FAME, an organization for media specialists and librarians across Florida, chooses a list of 15 young adult literature books that students across the state read and vote on. Each student is encouraged to read at least 3 books from the list before voting. The winner is named at the end of the school year. Look for the logo at the left on the spine of the books in the media center for this year's nominees! Check out the winners from previous years in the column to the left!
