Barnes & Noble announced the nominees for their Children s and YA Book Awards Monday. The awards honor titles that have been published during the past year (March 2020 to March 2021).
This is the first year for the awards, in which Barnes & Noble book buyers and sellers single out titles by new authors, and authors early in their careers, that they consider exceptional. The categories include children, young reader and young adult novels.
“We are very proud as a bookseller to support the careers of authors,” said James Daunt, CEO of Barnes & Noble. “It is especially exciting to bring truly outstanding talent to everyone’s attention. Our booksellers have assembled a shortlist of stunning quality and these Awards will launch hitherto lesser-known authors on long and glittering careers.”

But what if you’ve sworn to protect the one you were born to destroy?
Tarisai has always longed for the warmth of a family. She was raised in isolation by a mysterious, often absent mother known only as The Lady. The Lady sends her to the capital of the global empire of Aritsar to compete with other children to be chosen as one of the Crown Prince’s Council of 11. If she’s picked, she’ll be joined with the other Council members through the Ray, a bond deeper than blood. That closeness is irresistible to Tarisai, who has always wanted to belong somewhere. But The Lady has other ideas, including a magical wish that Tarisai is compelled to obey: Kill the Crown Prince once she gains his trust. Tarisai won’t stand by and become someone’s pawn but is she strong enough to choose a different path for herself?
