Over on Book Riot this week..

 

• The Washington Department of Corrections has banned nonprofits from donating books to prisoners. Why this is a huge problem and how you can speak up and out about it.

 

• YA is not a genre, but rather a category, of fiction. When adults call it a genre though, are we inadvertently pushing teens out of their own books?

 

• 150 YA books hitting shelves between April and June for your already-toppling TBR.

 

Two podcasts to share this week! There’s a new episode of Hey YA, where Eric and I talk about Climate Fiction and YA set all across the world. I’m also the guest co-host on this week’s Get Booked podcast, which lets listeners write in for requests. I got to talk about weird nonfiction, about all kinds of amazing YA, and more.
