BPL's Mock Printz list!

1. Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Saenz

2. Ask the Passengers by A.S. King

3. Bomb: The Race to Build and Steal the World’s Most Dangerous Weapon by Steve Sheinkin

4. The Brides of Rollrock Island by Margo Lanagan

5. Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein

6. The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

7. There Is No Dog by Meg Rosoff

I am very happy that Aristotle and Dante got picked -- I think it's the book that nobody's talking about that really deserves a second look (though I'm seeing it on a fair number of Mock Printz lists this year, so maybe it's less underrated than I think!)

But my heart is with Code Name Verity, and that's the book I get to booktalk! My outside voice was all, "I think I'd really like to do Code Name Verity," but my inside voice was "I'LL FIGHT YOU FOR IT."
