The Cybils Shortlist Challenge – 2010

I’m addicted to YA and I enjoy children’s books as well, so it seemed smart to challenge myself to read all of the Cybil’s Short List books. Honestly, it wasn’t much of a challenge. I finished pretty early in the year and it was a piece of cake. I’m doing it again this year just because I enjoyed it so much. And, because I really appreciate the folks who work so hard to make the Cybil’s what they are. Here’s what I’ll be reading in 2010 (http://dadtalk.typepad.com/cybils/):
