. . . And We’re Back
Hooray! We’re back online, and the new site looks great, though please let us know if you’re having any problems with it. You may notice that there’s a new url for the site, and it will probably work best to update your RSS feeds with the new one: https://blogs.slj.com/adult4teen.
While I play around with the new functionality, I thought you all might enjoy this list (starts on page 8) from the December issue of VOYA, of adult mysteries for teens. Out of the 35 titles listed here, this blog reviewed a grand total of one (Megan Abbott’s Dare Me), so there are a lot of new titles to dig into and offer to teens.

It’s exciting to me that other publications are coming out with lists of adult titles for teens, especially when they catch books that we didn’t manage to get to. Any thoughts on what VOYA did or didn’t include in their list?
