Yay! Another book award to read from -- with the bonus of distinctly New England flavor!
The Vermont Book Awards honor work of outstanding literary merit by Vermont authors and celebrate the long tradition of literature in the state. Read more about them here.
I'm looking forward to reading some of these and discovering new writers. They also give awards for Poetry and Creative Nonfiction and I'm sorely tempted to add those to the list, as well.
As usual, blue means they are on my TBR shelf, waiting patiently. Green means I've not acquired them yet. The hunt is part of the fun!
