2015 Nerdies
The 2015 Nerdies have officially been announced! Take a look at all the amazing titles from each category:
- Fiction Picture Books
- Nonfiction Picture Books
- Early Reader and Chapter Books
- Graphic Novels
- Poetry and Novels in Verse
- Nonfiction
- Middle Grade Fiction
- Young Adult Fiction (Part One)
- Young Adult Fiction (Part Two)
The Nerdies started because so many books are overlooked for ALA-specific awards, so the Nerdies was created as a people’s choice awards, lending to the popularity of the books published over the past year. And what’s great is that they really take a look at all the categories, so a few more categories still need to be announced through January 3rd. (I’ll update the post to make sure I reflect ALL the winners this year!) Enjoy checking out these popular reads over the course of the next month or so.
Also exciting to note, is that the ALA Youth Media Awards will be announced on Monday, January 11th beginning at 8:00 AM EST.
