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. |

I've got to say that the selection seems pretty bleak to me, too (the "Monkey Trial" one looked like it might be okay). But we're not 13+ year-old teens, to whom the program is intended. How would they feel about the selection? |

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. |

I know I should be grateful for freebies, and I really am, but it's still a bit of a letdown! |

I feel that people who resort to things like this know that their position is weak or, at least unpopular. So they feel that they must ram their ideology down people's throats every chance that they get, especially with the young and impressionable, such as 13+ year-old teenagers.
