YA Book Awards Across the US

Background

       Every once in a while, I'll stop by my local library and find a select number of books separated from the rest in the young adult section. They are the Abraham Lincoln award nominees. For a while, I figured that every library in the country had this same little section of books as well. After a bit of research, I found out that the Abe Lincoln award is an Illinois thing, and that every state has their own book awards.
​       I decided to compile a list of all the states and their YA book awards, and post them for all to enjoy!
(*Note: These are all the awards I found to be strictly in the young adult genre. I am fully aware that there are more awards that feature young adult novels, but decided to leave these out for the purpose of this post.)

For me, it’s not about winning an award. It’s also about not even being nominated."
