Cybils nominations are upon us! Unlike last year, I am not a judge this year. I considered applying again but the truth is I found the process difficult last year and I had way more time last year than I do this year. However, I still support them fully and I think you should too. If you care about middle grade and YA books, get involved.
What are the Cybils?
The Cybils awards are given each year by bloggers for the year’s best children’s and young adult titles. Nominations are open to the public on October 1st.

So far I have nominated 2 books.
Fantasy & Science Fiction – Teen
The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater
Young Adult Fiction
The Storyteller by Antonia Michaelis
I’m calling it now – The Storyteller is going to win its division. I’m going to talk about this book more in depth tomorrow, but it is the best book I’ve read this year in all categories. I’ve never read anything like it before. Mind – prepare to be blown.
