Teens Know Best

Currently TKB is meeting online every second Tuesday of the month through Zoom from 6:30 - 8:00 p.m. Come talk books with us.

Contact teensknowbeststpaul@gmail.com for more information.

Since we’re not currently meeting in-person, teens can come to Dayton’s Bluff Library during Open Library Express hours to pick up and drop off the freshest books.

Location and Hours

Teens Know Best is an official Teens Top Ten review group. Did you love the book?  Was it so bad you couldn’t finish it? Was there a character that you really identified with?  Let publishers know what you really think about the book.  Your voice matters!

Teens' Top Ten Galley Review, opens a new window

Members are encouraged to submit at least one review a month using the form linked above. Non-submittal of reviews may be a case for suspension of borrowing privileges.

We are one of only 15 groups that were selected in the country to be part of the Teens’ Choice Book Award process! If you are a member of TKB, you can vote on the 2021 Teens Top Ten (these are the top books that were published in 2020).  You don’t need to read all of the choices but we do have them available to pick up at Dayton’s Bluff Library during Library Express Hours.

We are currently in the first round of voting to narrow the selection from the top 85 to the top 25 books.  Vote using this form.

• Talk about at least one book you have read by briefly sharing the highlights.
• You are always allowed to “pass” if you are not prepared to share.
• Respect is crucial: everyone deserves to share as much or as little as they like, without interruption – even if you disagree with them.
• Everyone is entitled to their opinion and there are no right or wrong responses.
• Don’t feel stuck with a book, if you don’t like it read something else. You can still talk about it and write a review because why you dislike a book is just as important as why you like one!
