Cool list. Gaby Triana is in my SCBWI chapter, and she just started LJ blogging. Check it out. Her LJ name is gabytriana. I'm too lazy to look up the html for the link. Sorry.

We've added each other. :)

John Green's Paper Towns takes place right before and during high school graduation, and Anatomy of a Boyfriend by Daria Snadowsky covers Dom's senior year and then the transition to college with her high school boyfriend.

Thanks! I've read Anatomy, but I haven't read Paper Towns, as it hasn't been released yet...

Long May She Reign by Ellen Emerson White is about trying to fit in at college when everything is working against you. But then, I mostly just want EVERYONE TO READ THAT BOOK.

Catalyst by Laurie Halse Anderson talks about when your college plans derail...

And there are more, I'm sure...but my head is foggy now...

Great list, as ALWAYS LW!! You are such a great resource.

[slayground]

Yes, I need to add Catalyst!
I haven't read LMSR. I need to catch up on White's works.

And SOMEDAY THIS PAIN WILL BE USEFULL TO YOU

You'd hate it, I suspect, but it'll jive with the jaded set.

Nice warning, there. ;-)
