It’s officially film awards season! The Oscars are happening on March 10th. Of course, there are always lots of great movies and creators nominated for awards. As someone who doesn’t watch a lot of movies, I’m back again adapting the awards for YA books. There are always a lot of great books to choose from! The American Library Association also recently announced their youth media awards, so check out some of those award winning teen books here.
Without further ado, I present to you the 2024 YA Oscar Awards! Each category includes a winner and two runners up.
