The Challenge

I am a Youth Librarian, but I run a book club for adults who like to read Young Adult fiction.  I usually have no trouble choosing books, but my club has made a request for something special.  They want the unicorn of YA fiction.  The club requested that the book we read in December be: a Stand Alone, Teen, Supernatural Mystery, with a little Romance.  To further complicate things it has to be in paperback because I have to buy 15 copies.  The gauntlet has been thrown.  Challenge accepted...Only now I'm left trying to find a book that fits the bill.  They are willing to give a little on the stand alone title part; a book in a series is okay as long as the mystery is resolved in a single book.  The supernatural mystery part of the request is a must.  I will be blogging all of the books that I read until I find The One.  (Maybe I should do brackets like in basketball.)  Here are the 1st books I am reading:

Sorcery and Cecelia by Patricia Wrede
Shadowland by Meg Cabot
The New Policeman by Kate Thompson
The Season by Sarah Maclean
Through Her Eyes by Jennifer Archer
LuLu Dark Can See Through Walls by Madison Bennett
Hemlock by Kathleen Peacock
Clarity by Kim Harrington
Dead is the New Black by Marlene Perez

I'm starting with these titles and I hope to find something that amazes me like the first time I read Nancy Drew when I was in the 4th grade.  I will be letting you know what I think as I knock out the books on the list.  If you have a favorite mystery let me know and I will add it to the list.
