I never heard of most of the books; I usually am unfamiliar with SYNC's YA titles, but this time I don't even know the ones they're calling classics. Oh well.
No worries, I was just hoping.

When Sync started out publishers (at least some of them) tried to use it to get YA readers hooked on their latest series. Those offerings, plus the classics, made it a gold mine. Now, it seems everything has to have some political bent to it. Half of the titles are pointed at a political agenda. Annoying.
