Ooh, nice. I want to read 'Whales On Stilts!'. My local library is closed until April, though. Closed! Until April! *is suffering* It's for refurbishment, though, so that's a yay. I should maybe read 'Anansi Boys' - I'm pretty sure I have that on a shelf somewhere, as yet unread.
One dangerously daring set of YA books I keep meaning to re-read is Susan Coopers 'The Dark Is Rising' series. I read them when I was a kid, but I've forgotten pretty much everything about them except that they were weird and unsettling and I loved them. And Alan Garner's 'The Owl Service', too.
