If you could only pick one YA book that was published this year to give to your high school library, what would it be?
Published this year? Humm... everything seems to be a series that I have read. But Pride and Prejudice and Zombies might get teens reading some Jane Austen with a little mix to it! 
Series are okay as long as the newest one was published this year. I'm interested in some of the best series as well.
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins...although I guess technically it was '08 but it was part of the '08-'09 school year
The Hunger Games sequelCatching Fire. My second choice would be Fire by Kristin Cashore. It's the prequel to Graceling. Both are amazing and everyone should read them!
I third Hunger Games and its sequel Catching fire. (even though Catching Fire isn't officially out yet =P)
The book coming to mind is Once Dead Twice Shy by Kim Harrison. I haven't read the Hunger Games but reading all the reviews I just might give it a try.

She was links to the first two chapters and they are amazing.
All four of those books are excellent choices.

I love Graceling too! Ack, can't wait for Fire :DI also have a friend who read Eyes Like Stars. I forget what she told me about it. lol. But it sounds cool, so I think I'll read it. :)
The last book I read was Going Bovine by Libba Bray. It was really good. Kinda bizarre, but I loved it. :]
