Not exactly riveting--the plot's pretty thin and the characters pretty much non-existent. But if you're thinking about renovating the teen space in your public library, this book has a lot of good suggestions--not just of things to do or not do, but things to think about and consider while you're at it.

Good initial entry into the world of creating teen spaces in libraries. See the 2nd edition (2009) for an expanded and updated view of the concepts and ideas around creating dynamic, flexible spaces for teenagers.
