So what is one of THE GREATEST things that can happen to an author? Hmmm? The National Book Award! It’s kinda like being nominated for an Oscar, or an Emmy, or a Golden Globe, or a Pulitzer…or any other prestigious change your life sorta awards.
And how BLESSED am I to actually know and email with one of the nominees this year! Extremely blessed. And the book? So so so good! The author and this book very much, in my humble opinion, deserve this recognition.
Sara Zarr and STORY OF A GIRL ! If you haven’t read this book; GO NOW! Library or bookstore, pick up a copy and read!
Congratulations to all the National Book Award finalists!
