Looks great. We're working on an anime list that might fir here as well.

Evan Bend:

Peg pointed out to me that "chapter books" was not an appropriate description on the teen page for the N.Y. Times best sellers. On http://info.infosoup.org/teen.asp I changed chapter book to recent releases. I was wondering if the best seller lists were worth keeping on the teen page? About half are YA titles and half for younger readers. Peg also pointed out that most of the titles are not that recent.

I tried a different version without the bestsellers http://info.infosoup.org/teen.asp combining staff picks and the bookletters teen scene and then added a link to teenreeds.com. Any thoughts? Thanks,

Evan Bend:

oops! The second url should be http://info.infosoup.org/teen2.asp

I also got some additional email feedback suggesting to keep the n.y.t lists on the teen page, so I came up with a combination that I think works http://info.infosoup.org/teen3.asp

Having just one teen bookletters seemed rather sparse, and this pushes up the infosoup lists on the right and puts staff picks above bestsellers. It looses a little consistency with the other two pages, but we all know about a foolish consistency....
