City of Bones Wins Georgia Peach Book Award for Teen Readers

Cassie just tweeted that she received this award from the Georgia Library Media Association. Here's the background on the award itself:

The purpose of the Georgia Peach Award is to highlight and promote the best current young adult literature for Georgia high school age students, to encourage young adults to read and to promote the development of cooperative school and public library services for young adults. Teens vote for their favorite books out of the year's top 20 nominees at their high schools and local public libraries.

What an honor for Cassie and City of Bones to be recognized in this manner. We here at Mundie Moms couldn't agree more with the stated goals:

To encourage Georgia young adults in grades 9-12 to recognize and read quality literature appropriate to their needs,interests, and reading levels.

Congratulations Cassie!!
