50/100, for 71 total - not terrible, but this teen librarian can do better (though I definitely do not agree that this is a 'Top YA' list, as there are more than a few 5th/6th grade level books here, as well as some...less than stellar titles). However, it's interesting to discover how many series I started but didn't finish. I've decided that it's a good thing, for recommendation purposes! Knowing a little about a lot is a librarian's bag, baby!
How did you do?
