The 2017 Georgia Peach Book Award for Teen Readers

The 2017 winner is The Book of Ivy by Amy Engel. Honor Books are When by Victoria Laurie and Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli.


I know this isn't very new news, but somehow I missed seeing the announcement when the winner and honor recipients are chosen. I apologize.

I saw an article yesterday that they are making a movie out of Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda which is supposed to be titled simply "Love, Simon" to be released in March of 2018.

Did you expect these books to win?

Nominees for the 2018 award have been listed on the website as well at this point. Check out the nominees and cast your vote at georgiapeachaward.org/

Voting closes on March 15, 2018. The winner and honor books will be announced Monday March 20, 2018 at the Kennesaw State University Conference on Young Adult Literature.
