It is such a huge list -- were only 5 years away from the 100th anniversary after all! I like the decade a year plan, but for myself I probably should make an effort to read all the ones I own that I picked up mostly at used book stores and garage sales first -- there have been SO MANY I've found at those places :) Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03215797870829907924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216081229982312439.post-29881354149065513312017-09-13T07:35:05.658-04:002017-09-13T07:35:05.658-04:00That would be a really challenging list I think!

I don't want to knock YA in general, but The Northern Light which was a Printz Honor book really stood out as really high-quality writing. I finished it and was like I need more YA like THAT in my reading life :)Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03215797870829907924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216081229982312439.post-86299405574249795632017-09-13T07:32:19.784-04:002017-09-13T07:32:19.784-04:00So many I have read have been great, but you'r...So many I have read have been great, but you're right, not all!

I have an unofficial goal to get through a decade a year, which means I have a lot of years to go to get back to 1922. And that's just the winners, not the Honor books! I like the idea of reading all the E.B. White winners, because that award hasn't been around nearly as long. And there are a couple others on your list of awards that I'm going to check out. This may have been a dangerous post for me... :)Julie @ Smiling Shelveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16695465649011617565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216081229982312439.post-55571141981037863922017-08-31T01:12:58.072-04:002017-08-31T01:12:58.072-04:00Yep!

I read a winner of the Noble Prize for nonfiction and wanted to read them all, but I haven't been doing that in a particularly deliberate way yet.DoingDeweyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09902496432225294188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216081229982312439.post-59641797301850218812017-08-29T19:59:56.095-04:002017-08-29T19:59:56.095-04:00Interesting topic!

I've never read through an awards list, although a couple of years ago I saved myself a copy of the Printz list and kept it as a reference for when I felt like finding a new-to-me YA title or author.

Just never made a hard effort at it. Found some really good books on the list...a few duds too, though. :P Hehe!Lizzy @ The Bent Bookwormhttp://www.bentbookworm.comnoreply@blogger.com
