You've heard about the Newberry Award, but have you met ALEX??? The Alex Awards are given to books that were not officially published for a Young Adult market, but that are deemed to have strong crossover appeal for both teens and adults. In this episode, librarians Jane McMahon, Susan Timmons, and Kate Pritchard share some of the favorite Alex Award-winning books. In addition, we share what we've been reading/watching lately and what we're looking forward to in the future!
