Fire won the Cybils!! And, uh, several other extremely wonderful books and you should go check out the list of winners posted yesterday if you haven't yet. I served on the YA Fantasy & Science Fiction panel and pulled really hard for Fire. I'm so happy to see such a gorgeous book win such an awesome award. Congrats, Ms. Cashore and a big round of applause for the other nominated titles and authors, the hard-working panelists, judges, and organizers!
It's like I don't want to curse anything by saying too much about my hopes for 2021. But I have zero problem talking about the upcoming books I'm excited to read. And so here are my most anticipated novels of 2021: And no covers yet on these, but I'm looking forward to them just the same: Neverland by Meagan Spooner Subtle Blood by K.J. Charles Devil in Disguise by Lisa Kleypas Which titles are on your list?
Yay, congrats Fire! I loved both Fire and Graceling. :)
ReplyDeleteChachic, aren't they just the most awesome companion novels ever? I cannot wait to find out what she's got in store for us with BITTERBLUE!
ReplyDeleteI still haven't been able to finishe this book! Remember how I said that the "Hero" books ruined me for a while? LOL. Maybe its time to pick "Fire" up again :)
ReplyDeleteI think it deserves it. :)
ReplyDeleteYAY! Well-deserved.
ReplyDeleteI know! I can't even decide what I like more between the two. I can't wait for Bitterblue too!
ReplyDeleteOh fantastic!! I'm so glad to hear this one got the honors.
ReplyDeleteI was so excited to see who'd won. I'm glad Fire won, but I loved almost all the books. So I wanted them all to win!
ReplyDeleteWell deserved!
ReplyDeleteElizabeth, lol! Sometimes it just takes you that way. I read FIRE at the perfect moment, but don't push it. Wait till you're feeling it and then see how the rest of it goes.
ReplyDeleteJanice, *nods* I thought you might.
Vanessa, *highfive*
Chachic, I wasn't expecting anything near the sheer awesome of FIRE after the greatness of GRACELING. My hat's off to her.
Michelle, I was really holding my breath. So pleased.
Sami, it was hard enough narrowing it down to those final few, wasn't it? From there it would have been really tough.
Liza, indeed.
