Lots of links for a snowy day.

• Pulitzer and National Book Award winning books mapped by setting. I’d love to see this for Printz and Newbery winners!
• Literature in Lego.
• I was never a great skater, but I sure do love it. Gotta check out these skating YA reads!
• A behind-the-scenes look at YALSA’s Outstanding Books for the College Bound committee.
• Recently finished A.S. King’s Ask the Passengers, so I was super excited to see this great interview with her.
• A look at the literary journal slush pile–very much in line with what I experienced working on Redivider back in the day.
• Responding to “why that book?” and inevitable award backlash.
• Authors share the books they’d give to their 10-year-old selves.
• In movies, everyone’s an architect. (My pet peeve: YA novels in which characters have super hip jobs. Where were these magical clothing stores/hip coffee shops/etc when I was a teen?)
• Everyone loves libraries and we should support them.
• Save the comma! Save pants!
