So grateful to say WHAT I CARRY has been nominated for the 2023 Connecticut Library Association’s NUTMEG BOOK AWARD for Young Adult titles! I am honored to be considered in a final ten list of authors I truly admire - which I know I always say, but that’s becuase it’s true! Thank you so much too, to the Connecticut Association of Librarians. Happy voting, and happy Spring!
