I have not read any of the YA, but I have read a bunch of the adult category noms. Finally! I don't have to go out and find all of them this year. ;-)
ReplyDeleteTried to comment yesterday, but it wouldn't take.
ReplyDeleteAny-way, I have actually read quite a few of the adult category noms. So, I have some favorites this year. And not as many books that I need to find. That's a good thing.
Thanks for staying on top of these things.
You're welcome! Sounds like you're ahead of the game with your reading :-)
ReplyDeleteThe Agatha YA nominees have a few that are Edgar noms this year, too. I'm hoping I'll have enough time to read them all before the winners are announced.
So far the Harlan Coben one is pretty good.
