A Quick Note

Just a quick post to congratulate the following book for winning the 2009 Michael L. Printz Award:

Jellicoe Road
by Melina Marchetta. I haven't read it but I have read the synopsis and look forward to it.

Honor books were: The Astonishing Life of Octavian Nothing, Traitor to the Nation, Volume II: The Kingdom on the Waves by M.T. Anderson. I have not read this yet.

The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks by E. Lockhart. This was a good book but I don't remember that much about it.

Nation by Terry Pratchett. I loved this book and own it. After I heard that it was an honor book, I decided that later this week I will write a fuller review, hopefully.

Tender Morsels by Margo Lanagan. I haven't read this book yet either.

So congratulations! I hope to read all of these books soon!
