Your Printz Has Come
second Printz honor was awarded to Out of Darkness, written by Ashley Hope Pérez. Set in 1937 East Texas, Mexican American Naomi and African Ameri-can Wash begin a bitter-sweet romance. Perez’s beautifully crafted novel is a moving portrayal of both powerful love and a period marked by oppressive, de-structive racism. For these and other great books, browse the library’s catalog online, log onto Novelist or use our new phone app called Book-myne (you can download it from your app store). Of course, you are always wel-come stop by and talk to one of our friendly librari-ans. We love talking books.
On January 11th, the Young Adult Library Ser-vices Association (YALSA) announced the 2016 win-ners of the prestigious Printz Award. Each year YALSA, a division of the American Library Associa-tion, announces the award given to the best example of teen literature published in the previous year. The award is based on literary merit and strives to reflect the diverse world our teens live in. All types of litera-ture are considered: fiction, nonfiction, poetry, graphic novels and anthologies. The 2016 Printz winner is Bone Gap, written by Laura Ruby and published by
Balzer + Bray, an imprint of HarperCollins Publish-ers. Told from alternating viewpoints, Bone Gap per-fectly melds elements of fairy tales, myths, gothic romance, and magic realism into the story of Finn, who lives in a town with gaps in the very fabric of time and place. The Printz Committee also chose two honor books this year. The Ghosts of Heaven, by Marcus Sedg-wick is composed of four seemingly disparate stories, each of which feature a character haunted by the ever-present shape of a spiral. Spanning time, space, and genre, each story raises powerful questions about human nature. The
